Look at our baby photo! Weren’t we cute?! (What IS a “Chapo”, anyway?)

Complimentary cupcakes and fruit punch are available on the obligatory plastic folding table at the back of the community center basketball court we rented out.

“ChapoChat'' was always intended as a temporary name. When first building the site, we needed something to rally around and had to move fast. Until now, ChapoChat has been focusing on the practical of “what” the project did, but the “why” also needs to be part of the story and give reasons for our comrades to believe in it. We’ve outgrown the “ChapoChat” name and are at a new stage. [...]

Being strictly associated with the Chapo Trap House name has actively blocked us from being an option for a number of organizers as the pod is increasingly viewed by other leftists as more associated with stupidpol and SocDem politics than other more leftist causes.

This site and its community has grown into something far more dynamic than just the fans of a SocDem political podcast. We have comrades from every tendency and continent talking together, finding solibearity, and yes sometimes fighting to the death.

That's the official reason for the rebranding

Well that date explains why I missed it. That's when I want all eSports with WoW. Playing that game for 18 hours per day is not conducive to keeping up with what's going on around oneself. Thank you as well.

Glad you're doing better and stopped being a g*mer, comrade catgirl-salute

I mean this place has far more in common with r/moretankiechapo but at the same time, most of those people have ended up in the stupid pol sphere.
