History Awesome / JoshScorcher

-->'''Firebrand:''' We're all going to die. Every day we desensitize ourselves with our YouTube, anime, video games, books, all to do our best not to think about the ultimate truth that everyone spends their entire lives trying to ignore. The fact that everyone is suffering and everyone is going to die. It doesn't matter who you are or what you do. You and I have a 100% mortality rate. And war, it makes death happen much earlier than we want which is why we hate it so much. It makes the reality of our limited lives become harder to ignore. No one wants to think about those things, everyone's natural instinct when confronted with danger or suffering is to run away. However, those who join the military, they have to run towards chaos and evil. They have to reject the illusion of safety and put themselves in danger to maintain our wistful fantasies of peace. They are required to embrace these worries and fears so you don't have to. They are forced to leave their families and travel to hostile lands thousands of miles away and fight the worst of humanity just so you can pretend you're safe. That's the reason people in the military get so stressed and depressed, because they have to confront reality on a daily basis. That's why they deserve our respect. The military looks for those who are mentally and physically tough, strong of character, and show values of honor, courage, and commitment. Because of this, this is a job that not everyone can do, and not everyone should do. Freedom doesn't come free and never came free, and these are people who pay for that freedom with their minds, limbs, futures, and even their lives. This is a group whose action have continuously extended far past the grave and affected all of us today, and I'm nothing if not proud to be a part of that legacy.

** Then you have Lunacorva, Alex Rochon, and Xain Russell (unfortunately however, he has later disowned the response video), who all have different opinions than Josh on many of his beliefs and stances, stepping in to call out many of the things she had said or done.

** How does Josh end his video? By apologizing to Lily for how their friendship ended, and asking for forgiveness for the embarrassment he put her through. AND, he also apologizes for offending people with some of the comments he made on his Newbie Dash review. The humility in his final statements are incredible.

** For starters, despite being upset by her actions, Josh never raises his voice once. He remains calm, clear, and concise. The only times where you can tell he's [[TranquilFury angry]] is when he addresses Lily's statement on him not being a real Marine (more on that in a bit), and when he point out that she started bullying Ink Rose because she had a different opinion on certain ships than she did.

* When discussing the most controversial scene in Ponyville Confidential, Josh and his shoulder selves talk about who's the one to blame for the CMC's predicament. Do they analyse and discuss it calmly through theories? NOPE. They perform an entire freaking parody musical number of ''Your Fault'' from [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Film/IntoTheWoods Into The Woods]]. It's as amazingly hilarious as it sounds.

'''Firebrand:''' I am. Magic is more than power or knowledge. It is application. Size up the problem and learn the most efficient way of overcoming it. Right now, my tactic is to keep you from focusing. ''Overcome it.''

* Being very open about his conservative views. [[RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement Regardless of your thoughts on the subject,]] it takes big brass ones to go onto the Internet, especially a website like Tumblr, and in no way try to hide being conservative but still be polite about it. (It helps that he isn't the bigoted, Bible-thumping type of right-wing that people have started associating the term with as of late.)

* Doing the entire Xemnas fight in one go without dying once and with just the normal Kingdom Key, and reflecting every single one of Xemnas's attacks during the very long Reaction Command sequence, then utterly destroying him with a Limit Break set to Rhapsody of Fire.

* Doing a tutorial on how to beat Lingering Will and beating him in less than TWO AND A HALF MINUTES.

* During his KingdomHearts2 LetsPlay, he fights the Savannah Overlord Heartless. Being [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever what it is]], plus the scenario of dodging its attacks, he sets the initial stages of the fight to [[Anime/AttackOnTitan Guren no Yumiya]].

* The song "Rules of Nature" playing as he executes the [[spoiler:last attack on Roxas during the [=KHII=] Final Mix LP.]] Watch it [[https://youtu.be/xmwwkGpLarM?t=3m13s here]]

* [[WebVideo/MLPAnalysis Dr Wolf]] gets one in ''Shenanigans with 2''. Where he achieves the highest score despite having little experience playing Mann vs Machine. All while maintaining his [[TheStoic usual demeanour]].

* Not only being able to admit how [[BigBrotherBully he mistreated his little brother]] publicly on the internet, but having done his best to do better and mend his relationship with his sibling. Admitting your mistakes and being willing to change takes a lot of guts.

--> '''Joshscorcher:''' Gentlemen...

* The fact that Josh is both ready and willing to [[FanDumb chew out his fans]] when they do something stupid. Mostly when they go after people he tries to poke fun at.
