I spoke with a Russian who lived through the fall of the Soviet Union. He told me that at least under the soviet union, you may not have had a lot, but you always had a roof over your head. Under the capitalist regime, there was no limit to how poor you were allowed to be.

Yeah but why would you want a society that cares for the basic needs of everyone when you could have funko pops instead

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.
