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.

Like a month ago The Lancet said it was at least 180,000, likely over 300,000

A little before that, electronic intifada published an estimate over 300,000, I believe

They have basically no food and water, and what water they have isn't clean; they also have no anesthetic or ways to keep wounds clean or disinfected and people are losing limbs everywhere; 300,000 is sadly too easy to believe. If the hostages were starving despite Hamas doing everything in their power to keep them alive, then you know the population is even worse off.

And this is just since October, right? This doesn't include everything from even the past decade or so?

Yeah that’s since October 7th 2023

Yeah I posted about this in the news megathread months ago. That's when Ralph Nader started saying this in articles that he wrote, which he mentioned in this interview that you have linked. In that article Nader also argued that both sides want to suppress the true death toll to an extent, Hamas and the resistance so they can justify continued fighting, and Israel so they can keep the genocide going and avoid more scrutiny. Nader also states this in the interview.

Anyone who still thinks its 41k like the media reports must be high

Anyone who thinks it's that low should read Inventing Reality, or at least use a bit of critical thinking.
