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'm not the one who said you can't read Chinese. And while 3 isn't conclusive proof, nobody is claiming it is - it's just evidence.
Sorry, do you think the choreographed practice and play sparring of martial arts is real fighting? It's good exercise, but it's to a real fight as DDR is to dancing. Like you're welcome to try your stealthy John wick takedowns but when I've been attacked I've screamed bloody murder, like my MA instructors told me to do if I need to actually defend myself.
Did you? Not listen, but actually watch what the trainees were doing?
Real self defense will teach you most of the same stuff, just without the emphasis on acting like a cornered animal. Martial arts are great workouts, and that strength and endurance training definitely helps in a fight, but they're exhibition sports so every martial arts instructor will tell you that it's an absolute last resort for self defence and in a real fight even an improvised weapon is better than being unarmed. For REAL self defence carry whatever's legal in your country to use as a weapon, go for the sensitive bits, and make lots of noise, like he says.
Nobody has taken any personal shots at you, you're just mad because your critiques are recieving reasoned rebuttals that actually analyse the material instead of giving a knee jerk dismissal. It sure looks weird and stupid, but it also has something there that seems to be working in its favour, so we're discussing why that is instead of giving what you feel is appropriate reverence to traditional martial arts. You, on the other hand, have spent your time bragging about your ignorance and calling us fools and children for arguing back while insisting you're above it all. Obviously you have time to argue, or you wouldn't be doing it.

This tells me all I need to know. This is genuinely pitiful and hilarious. ๐ This is the kind of thing a 12y/o would say on xbox live. Tagline worthy.
