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.

The people I know who have read a lot of Chomsky are pretty pro-Ukraine/NATO.

It's strange how he's got a good take on it even though people who like him ignore him. If he was playing to an audience he wouldn't say that, so for all the criticism you can't say he's not genuine

Chomsky is like AOC to me, I do not have the energy to keep up with the good/bad seesaw shit that happens whenever a new take drops.

Maybe I'll care when he drops the next election take since he might conceivably have influence there, but I dont have the energy to care that hes a latecomer to the NATO bad party.

His criticisms of US foreign policy have always been without peer

I love Papa Parenti as much as the next comrade and he puts on a hell of a show, but is very simply not on Noam's level. Noam always came strapped with a fortress of citations that even in his 90s he can still seemingly recite from memory. He really is on another level.
