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.

That reminds me of how EVE Online became unbearable for me after I looked too far into the lore and saw that it was a capitalist wet dream of immortal (ignoring the handwaves of whether those clones are a continuation of the same subjective being or just a new person burdened with a bunch of "uploaded" memories, and the handwave of how the "immortality" gets even more questionable if for any reason two, a hundred, or a million clones wake up at the same time) space feudal lords seeing their own crews (and entire planetary populations) as basically-invisible background noise that might be killed off by the thousands in a single sentence (to complete indifference from the immortal space feudal lords) to show how cool and edgy the setting is.
I used to find "space trucker" stories to be fun and even somehow romantic but now I kind of hate them the more I think about how implausible they are to any civilization that has the technology for "space trucking" to actually depend upon it. Star Citizen has a laughably bad worldbuilding section where a planet-wide city is implied to be almost entirely supplied by "space truckers" one delivery at a time. If that was even possible it'd be a crime against economies of scale and be staggeringly wasteful.
Sounds like that old "a thief believes everyone steals" saying to me.
It is easier to imagine faster than light travel than the end of capitalism.
The take away of this entire thread.
I hope we'll start seeing some based leftist science fiction stories on our creative writing community as the platform grows. See you in space comrade
I wrote a proletariat class war novel trilogy featuring mecha that are eventually instrumental in destroying capitalism, but that's not quite FALGSC as much as the path to it.
Where can I read it?
I'll send you some details.
