The Meaning of the Titanic

[@RatOnDaKeys773]

KZbin needs more longform educational content from academics. This video is a prime example. A higher standard of content vs shortform clickbaity History content. Keep up the great work.

[@peterd4579]

I completely agree! I "discovered" this amazing channel a week ago and it has been my absolute favorite ever since. Thanks Sean for all your interesting and captivating historical documentaries and all the effort you put into them! Best regards- Peter "Dragonlake"//Sweden

It’s out there. The algorithm won’t push it though. Gotta search.

[@lumberlikwidator8863]

Just six minutes into this very long episode Sean Munger demonstrates that he hasn’t done his research properly, so I have to conclude that the rest of this monologue is full of errors and not worth my time. Some people talk and talk and talk and still say nothing. I watched a few of Sean’s shorter presentations and subscribed because I liked them. But in this episode and his closed-minded, three-hour plus speech on the JFK Assassination, he demonstrates beyond any doubt that he hasn’t looked at all the possibilities. He’s been very subjective when objectivity is what’s called for, so in the future I will listen closely from the beginning for any of his biases and factual errors, and if hear any more rookie mistakes like what he said about why so many of the travelers on the Titanic died, I will probably unsubscribe on the spot.

Videos about the Titanic are a dime a dozen, but I love how you approached this as a lens to explore so much else. It's the long, complicated part of history-- but also what I love about it.

Just wanna say that I’m so glad you decided to continue the long form content here. I found your channel through the Iran contra video and I think I’ve watched basically everything you’ve posted now lmao. I studied history in college and I really missed having access to people with your level of expertise who communicate without the youtube clickbait history stuff. You’re a great teacher and I look forwards to whatever you choose to talk about next :)

[@reygordo]

Stick to the long form please. I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish.

[@Tiglath-PileserXIX]

Sean, that was AMAZING. I am not an expert in history. History was an idle interest of mine. My profession has nothing to do with history. Barbara Tuchman was my original inspiration. The early 20th century is my favourite topic. Thank you for putting all these issues together in one compact story.

[@StopLookingAtMyAmygdala]

Best channel on KZbin right now. Criminally underrated.

[@tonymontana8741]

You're a great historian. I think that historians more than anybody else need to approach historical events through various lenses and that is exactly what you do with every video. Very educational and informative, thank you!

[@profmcthicccums]

Even having watched several of your longform videos, I didn't expect this to be so riveting. Thank you for doing this and making it available for free!

[@cathe8282]

Dude! So good. I like your "quiver" theory and think it's got merit. I like long lectures and your style and concise-ness (probably not a word) keep me very engaged.

[@jennifer60515]

How about brevity? That’s a word you could use rather than conciseness. But I think they are both words.

[@DataLal]

At the start of every single long-form video of yours (that I've seen, anyway), you say you don't expect people to watch straight through from start to finish, and to use the chapters to nagivate the video instead. I don't think I'm an outlier when I say that I LOVE watching these videos from beginning to end in one sitting. It's like a fascinating University lecture with fun "slides" and book props to boot, or a great book I have to keep reading into the night because I can't put it down. Although considering the office setting, it also resembles the best Office Hours with a prof EVER. Still, I appreciate that you DO make the effort to put in chapters with titles for these videos - it gives my ADHD brain guideposts to latch onto so I'm less likely to veer off into the comment section [while the video is still playing], or go off on an internal tangent - which means less having to repeat sections of the video [3-5 times until my brain finally pays attention] or just give up trying, thereby missing valuable information that I could have otherwise gleaned. The best teachers also divide their lectures into chapters, or sections, to keep interest going. So, all this is to say: you're an excellent, engaging teacher, and please keep the long-form videos coming!

[@bobtaylor170]

So, I'm not the only one whose "interesting" brain keeps forcing him to go back time after time after time to rewatch things!

[@MrNb131]

I've been a history fan for a long time. Most youtube history content isn't brand new information to me. This channel is different. I'm constantly learning new things here. Thanks!

[@jasperjones6857]

When I was over 30, I was going through my grandmother's house with my mother. She said she had tickets for the second crossing of the Titanic, going back to Europe. Her whole family was visiting the old country and booked passage. So I said that the tickets would be interesting and maybe valuable, so what happened to those tickets? She said, "We turned them in and got tickets on another ship. The Lusitania." "What??" "Yes, it was a wonderful ship. There was no war on." So my mother had tickets for both Atlantic ship disasters. She had never mentioned her Titanic connection before.

[@SaintRa1nbow]

This was one of the most well said and thought provoking videos I think I’ve watched on KZbin in some time. In particular I feel humbled by your theory that we are currently feeling the quivers of another great catastrophe due to our belief in the cult of technology and I cannot stress enough how profound you putting it that way in relation to one of history’s great tragedies the titanic is, and that much like that poor woman clutching a St. Bernard in the frozen Atlantic we may all be bodies grimly disposed of by value too if we do not start making more thoughtful and future positive decisions as a society. This video truly felt like being shaken to my senses almost and again I can’t thank you enough for making it. I’d really love to see your channel get more views because this was truly a masterful video.

These feel like a lecture you'd get from a quality professor in college or a community event. There's far fewer people who consume that content rather than merely watching a flashy "The REAL secrets of the Titanic" on History channel.

It just got another fan. Deserves many more.

[@froggyspond1133]

A year later, it’s finally getting around through the algorithm. I’m a new sub, this stuff is great

[@tholstad1]

A very thought-provoking analysis of a disaster that is still talked about over a century later, and a reminder that nothing happens in a vacuum - the tree that falls in the forest DOES make a noise, regardless of whether someone is there to hear it or not, and it has an effect in either case.

[@tsvalenzuela2047]

This video is absolutely gripping. I've watched it three times in the last year or so. The "Quiver" theory is a fascinating way to look at history (and current events). Thank you so much, Dr. Munger, for all the compassion, loving care and hard work you put into this creation. Please make more videos like this! :)

[@TheGangsterousG]

This is probably one of the best videos I've seen on KZbin. What a wonderful angle on the Titanic disaster.

[@jaded_burgher9702]

Just found your channel yesterday through your epic of debunking JFK conspiracies, I love your form of organization in your essays, it makes it very accessible and shows how passionate you truly are about reclaiming history especially with all the slop these days. Anyways, keep it up man, subscriber for life! ❤️👍

[@bobtaylor170]

This channel's two part JFK assassination video is first rate, greatly needed work. It's a delight to see such rationality and sheer sense on display. There is one other thing on KZbin which is extremely different from this video, but which complements it well, LEMMiNO's computer graphic re - creation of the assassination. It's primarily about where the shots could have come from ( hint: only that sixth floor corner window ). It's one of the best things I have ever seen.

[@stevematthews4489]

Love Sean's videos, really great stuff. One small "quibble": I find the word "quiver" confusing bevause in my mind it means a quiver of arrows or someone shaking. When Sean uses "quiver" as a metaphor for the first shakes of an earthquake, I think "tremors", but thats just me.

[@stevef]

Just found your content. Loved the Amway video. Been a Titanic “fan” for 45 years and this is a great video. Love how you tied social trends and connected other historical events. So many study and write on the Titanic in a singular manner. Great stuff.😊

[@rootstockdesigninc.717]

Outstanding video - these long form videos of yours are brilliant and utterly engrossing - you are the least pretentious, and most well written historian I’ve encountered in a very long while - the scope of detail explored enriches the history you’re constructing and narrating - truly a thing of beauty - thank you

[@radkobachvaroff]

You knocked it out of the park with this Sean. I really enjoy the idea of a quiver

[@sharonshea3261]

Your intelligent, long videos are the best thing on youtube. This one, plus the one on Manson and the one about Watergate, are amazing. The one on Watergate was so amazing I watched it a second time on the same day. It's such a relief from all the short, meaningless fluff. Bravo to you, Sean.

[@RWSCOTT]

great content, I like your quiver theory. re: 1:11:40 - reminded of the line in Max (2002) where Cusack's character (a survivor of the battle at Ypres) comments: "I've seen the future. Believe me, it came straight at us. There's no future in the future.''

Your point about the oblivious hubris preceding WWI being recapitulated in our present epoch is something I have been telling my friends ad nauseum for nearly ten years. I greatly appreciate the effort you put into elucidating the threads tied to this event.

[@bobtaylor170]

Yes, how else can the entrance of Ukraine to NATO have been fostered by the West despite Russia's repeated warnings that such a thing would be an intolerable infringement of Russia's proper sphere of influence?

In every one of your videos you chapter them very conveniently for me, and I never use the feature and listen from beginning to end. You are an excellent historian!

[@lswfan33]

I just saw something today that reminded me of your discussion of labor unrest in this video. Edgar Samuel Andrew was a 17-year-old 2nd class passenger on Titanic. He was born in Argentina, and had traveled back and forth between Europe and the U.S. several times. On this occasion, he was heading to New Jersey to go to his brother’s wedding. Here’s a letter he sent to his friend in Argentina two days before Titanic set sail: “You figure Josey I had to leave on the 17th this (month) aboard the "Oceanic", but due to the coal strike that steamer cannot depart, so I have to go one week earlier on board the "Titanic". It really seems unbelievable that I have to leave a few days before your arrival, but there's no help for it, I've got to go. You figure, Josey, I am boarding the greatest steamship in the world, but I don't really feel proud of it at all, right now I wish the 'Titanic' were lying at the bottom of the ocean.” If not for the labor unrest, and ensuing coal strike, young Edgar would have boarded a different ship. His last letter is cryptic, in regards to what happened in less than a week’s time. Edgar died in the sinking, and his body, if recovered, was never identified. In 2000, his suitcase was found on the ocean floor and has been preserved.

[@Paddy984]

I learn something new every time I watch your videos. However, you went above and beyond the usual in this particular one and incorporated so much more. Being Irish, the Titanic holds a special significance for me, and although I am a recent subscriber and have only watched about five of your videos to date, I am now completely hooked and intend to watch everything you have made available. Thank you.

[@jonemerson2386]

This is a completely refreshing and substantive way to look at this event, does deserve more views

[@peterpayne2219]

Super great video! I love your ability to dig meaning out of broad, potentially unrelated topics. In case you don’t know, there was a Japanese man on the titanic, his name was Masabumi Hispano,, and when Japan learned that he survived, he got trashed by the entire country. He was forced out of his government job, although he got it back a few years later. He was the grandfather of a famous Japanese singer, which is why his story is extra famous inside Japan.

[@emsouemsou]

30:19 "Asquith's government quickly tabled the issue" It should be noted that "tabled" means two completely opposite things in US English (to remove something from consideration) and UK English (to put something up for consideration)

[@jordanashleyd]

Hi Sean, really minor thing from a Brit. Most of the time you see "berk" in our place names, such as in "berkeley square" or "berkshire", it's normally pronounced just like the "bark" of a tree, with an "a" sound rather than "e". Thanks for the great vid!

[@mattgilbert7347]

This is excellent material (I refuse to use the C word) and very well-presented. You're offering a pretty important perspective in reading the meaning of Titanic through a broader historical perspective. It's also fun. Edit: "cult of technology" - now that seems relevant to today Thanks for spending time on the Irish situation. It's important context.

Im so glad Ive stumbled on your channel. My brain yearns for knowledge both useless and useful(and yours is incredibly useful), I just came here from your Iran-Contra video Ive been putting off watching for a while. Ill definitely need to give it a few rewatches, but golly I truly appreciate how in depth you get in to topics. So very glad you seem to have kept with the long form subject. Looking forward to working through your backlog and continunally revisiting. I tend to avoid a lot of more recent history cause its harder to make that disconnect when you can see how the actions of a few over the course of a few centuries have shaped the world we live in, quiver is a good word for it, maybe ripple. You make it all much more platable, a great jumping off point into topics I know I very much need a better grasp on. Thank you so much for your hard work!!

[@teresamanning5016]

One of the best videos I have ever viewed. I appreciate how you have integrated history pre and post Titanic . History cannot be viewed in a vacuum. History is a living topic like yeast. You have given me so much to think about including books that I want to read and meditate on. Ironically, Stravinsky is one of my favorites and have never thought about it as you discuss. "quiver's theory" shows such fascinating links between events. One of my current thoughts is about how Artificial Intelligence will impact us. Now I will begin looking for the reading material you have discussed. Keep up the great work.

Bravo! My only quibble is your relative lack of mention of the flu pandemic circa 1918. I think that pandemic, carried worldwide via technology and war, was at least as great a shock as WWI itself.

A brilliant video examining the impact of various events in those the times.

I'm having this kind of 'proud tower collapsing' moment in my life as of 2020. Before that, yeah, I had my own problems like any person. But I was living in a bubble, thinking ever since WW2 ended, those kinds of massive catastrophes were a thing of the past, and our modern age was an age of perpetual peace and prosperity. And then Covid happened. Then Russia invaded Ukraine (I live in Eastern Europe). Now the Palestine horror. I feel like the world has been crumbling steadily for the past 3 years, and I also feel as if there's something even larger looming over all of it. I think we're getting close to our own version of Titanic. And I'm a complete atheist, so I'm not talking about some kind of mystical apocalypse and stuff. Just a massive societal draw-back.
