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 hate to repeat myself but...

The average American reads at below 6th grade level, doesn't know American history, and is lazy as fuck.

C'mon. Please engage with reality. Yeesh.

I don't understand how your point should be applied to reality.

Are you suggesting that we shouldn't mention relevant history to the people who don't research it on their own?

Are you suggesting we should ignore history and use the word 'gestapo', which the Average American you're describing wouldn't understand either?

Are you suggesting that everyone should dumb themselves down to the level of this Average American so they don't get annoyed by us?

I'm not saying this to argue, I seriously want to understand the issue you have with this video correcting a historical misunderstanding and providing education to its target audience.
