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.

There is nothing wrong with lamenting that people don't invest time into it, but doing that with open condescension rather than with empathy for the value of their time is also a harmful choice.

I'm talking about leftists here, not random people. I wouldn't expect any random American to even know what theory is, much less read it. However, leftists refusing to read are a completely different case. They know better.

I'm saying this on a forum for leftists, to other leftists. Leftists usually get told to read theory because they're wrong about something, and the theory can correct that. I wouldn't say this to random people at a community event, obviously.
