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.

I’ve been kinda sus on this channel that a couple of months ago suddenly started putting out like “intro to being an irl leftist” content of decent quality, but this video is good. Disregard “conservatives”, this is a good strategy for having irl conversations when you’re trying to spread our ideas to any worker.

You believe you can win over conservatives?

This pales in comparison to my strategy, illegal-to-say

Well that’s why I said in my post “disregard conservatives” this is a good way to talk to anyone

Yeah, a little sus, but he's pushing some decent theory.

Yeh, seems a bit shady that he comes out of nowhere and is already pushing some kind of “platform”. But I liked this video.

Part of me wonders if he's just what he says, decided to jump into leftist video space at a time where it's needed. But also, it's kinda like he's trying to sell a how to course on revolution. Then again as what he touches on seems to be better read and principled than a fed.

I guess it’s possible that there are some good faith actors in the world? 😆

I got this sus vibe too.

What did he do before starting to make these videos? This would tell us more.

No idea, never heard of him before. But I've played with the idea of writing or doing a podcast or something and I'm an absolute nobody. Maybe legit, we need to watch closely. He also seems really buttoned up, like he came from prep school or something...

This dude looks like Luigi Mangione
