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.

Exactly, we need a pipeline, an infrastructure, an ecosystem, that gets our basic ideas out to essentially the whole population, and then draws people in to engage more deeply, one tiny step at a time, until a few become a cadre of real theory nerds, and then actual thought-leaders and contemporary theorists. (And note that the theory nerds and theorists are not necessarily "the vanguard" but can/do overlap.) It's up to us to find the best way to reach different audiences who are at different levels. And as a movement we're not nearly good enough at this but we are gradually improving. I think the original video is basically correct, but arguing against a bit of a strawman, we've mostly moved beyond that point at least.
