Like holy shit, I told everyone who asked that Trump would probably win, and I spent 0 minutes looking into the issue. Imagine this is your main job, you're a grown ass adult, and you're still doing idealism so hard.

The worst poster in the news megathread is 10x smarter than lib influencers.

What I've learned from this election is that reading polls makes you worse at predicting election results

The weird thing is that all the liberals in question were reading the polls and explaining why they think the polls were wrong.

I misread the data and it says we have to be more racist to win: praise the infallible data!

I correctly read the data and it says we're losing: the data is wrong!

Something something paid to not understand, etc.

It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.

This liberal in a politics chat I'm in kept copium posting in the weeks up to the election. Polls kept coming out confirming that the republicans had the upper hand. He dismissed them all as "fake polls put out by republicans to make themselves look better". Bro was just living in a totally separate reality.

The same goes for the previous elections. The most important elections of all time have very predictable outcomes at this point.

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.
