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.

You haven't said anything I would disagree with, yet you are wrong. Y'all are cheering not a revolutionary violence

The violence of Hamas is the weak targeting the strong. To every extent possible, it does not target or harm the helpless; it primarily seeks the wherewithal to bargain with; it seeks military targets first and foremost; hostages are treated charitably as opposed to the settler colony which habitually uses SA and torture on the people it abducts to gratify its wrath. Watch the testimony of Oct 7 survivors like Yasmin Porat; listen to 51 Days or any other rigorous account of the experiences. What is happening is a fighting back against the oppressor until the oppressor's privileged position becomes untenable. Fighting against a military occupation by a fascist ethnostate is revolutionary by definition. Outside of the West, nobody has brainworms about Hamas; they are seen as freedom fighters regardless of their religious/political persuasions.

The violence of Iran against Israel is remarkably restrained, and defensive in nature.

You are being unrealistic by expecting a standard of nonviolence, and you have the hypocrisy of living in places where you are ultimately a beneficiary either of successful revolutionary violence, or of colonization, or both. Nowhere on Earth was self-determination won without bearing arms.

You are contradicting yourself
