Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

I’m a Central Asian person living in Germany. I’m keenly aware of the threat to the lives and livelihoods of us, a threat that has been made ever more clear since October 7th. However, in terms of destructive force that can be unleashed onto the rest of the world, this wave of fascism is shaping up to be the farce to the tragedy it was last time around.

You make excellent points about the demographic situation and the like, and it's great to read something positive like that. But it seems really off to be downplaying the threat that fascism poses to the world. To come out and say that it doesn't have the destructive potential this time around is just wild, considering the fascists didn't have a nuclear arsenal last time. And that's not the only reason that it could be even worse in a WWIII scenario than it was in WWII, with the absence of anything like the Soviet Union now, as u/edge was pointing out.
