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.

If mamdani successfully purges the police I will full throatedly call him a comrade of immense importance. I'm waiting patiently to see what happens
If you purge you have to replace them though right? Otherwise its just a a cut. Who will he get in there?
You should try to get communists in there it worked for Czechoslovakia post WW2, the partisans supplanted the police and couped the liberals. It's even easier to vet people now just dig into their social media
In the interview they show you a bunch of memes and you have to explain which of them is based and why.
Hold up printouts of your Reddit bans like a DPRK general's medals
How are you going to convince hundreds of communists in New York to do entryism in the fucking NYPD?
Make a video saying “We are going to change the NYPD, and I need people who would never normally want to be cops to apply!” while a hammer and sickle slowly fades in and out behind him like a subliminal message
Give me a cot to sleep in and a scratching post for my cat and I'll move tomorrow
Can't imagine it's harder than getting rid of actual Nazi collaborators and sympathizers
Tell them they will have the full backing of the NYPD and the city to go stop-and-frisk, harass, and physically intimidate suspiciously wealthy-looking people walking around Wall Street.
This won't happen, but theoretically you would work with left-wing groups to get the word out while maintaining plausible deniability in public. You would also need to purge the higher ranks first and replace them with people you already have selected and allow them time to get the infrastructure in place to make the selection process ideologically sound. But yeah that's a multi year process and the entire power of the political machine would be pushing against you.
Just cutting them would be improving the world massively
He specifically said he will not be reducing officer headcount. Will need to wait for his second term at the soonest for that.
I'm not reducing officer headcount, but I will be replacing them with an equal amount of the People's Red Army
But yeah if he does nothing to the pigs he's just another hot air lib that will accomplish little
Hold up though, just like you said there is plenty he can do besides reduce officer headcount. Cut overtime, cut equipment funding, "special assignments" that aren't on the street, close the international offices, no increase in headcount, no increase, or possibly a decrease in overall budget, etc...
These things are all "defunding the police" and directing resources to actually useful city services, but he's doing it the slow and kinda centeristy way (NYC centrist, so between liberal and socialist) so that NYC lib voters don't have a reason to lose their minds since he's clearly said "you will have the same number of officers in the department". Ofc national media will smear all they want but he can just say that over and over again to the people he's actually trying to get votes from and grind out his victory. I
'm more worried about the assassination than the rat fucking (not that I'd be surprised if they pull that off either)
