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 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

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.

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.

Just cutting them would be improving the world massively
