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.

Dealing with the same thing up here in Canada with canola farmers. Price peaked at $750/tonne in mid summer before the Chinese tariffs kicked in, it's down to $600 and still dropping. It's extremely funny to hear them get mad and demand the liberals drop all tariffs on Chinese EVs, even if they're only saying it because they're losing money. (I'll take a byd though)

They for sure should drop the EV tariff though, it's such a blunder unless the gov is in the pocket of big oil or something oh wait

Oh 100%, it's just funny because all the farmers are right wing chuds who are advocating for pro-China policy.

They don't even sell Chinese EV's here do they? Isn't it a symbolic fuck you to China at the behest of Washington?

Yeah exactly, we are USA's dog so we don't allow cars even if they comply with EU safety standards, there's no way China is retooling to pass Canada/US standards only to enter the small Canadian market.
