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.

Jeez the nerve to purposely show up to a Palestinian comic to heckle them over israel. While claiming to be neutral on the topic. Zionazis are sick.

From the video it seems she was brought by her friend who was clearly embarrassed.

"Arabs and Muslims are atrocious on women's rights"

Which women? The women Israel is currently committing horrific, genocidal crimes against? I've said this about gay Gazans but it applies to women too; if you ask Gazan women who's been a greater harm to their rights, Hamas or the Israeli government, I think people like this woman would be surprised; now you know what makes this whole thing even crazier? The answer would've been the same on October 6th.

Heck, you ask Arab and Muslim women who they think would be a greater harm to their rights: any of their governments or the Israeli one and they'd also say the Israeli one; they'd say this in Saudi Arabia and Iran as well. You literally have the West bank to see what Israel thinks of the rights of Arab and Muslim women (also children).

These people are ready to use women from the global South for their talking points, but when they're of no value to them they'll shrug their shoulders even at the vicious slaughter of them. They should try asking what women from the global South think of them when they use them like this in their rhetoric. Absolute two-faced ghouls.

You could go as far as to say that the theocratic regimes that were propped up by the CIA in several middle-eastern countries are atrocious to women, but the biggest problems Palestine has are with "Israel".

I've said it for years, "Israel" doesn't have magic straight-people-seeking missiles.

We'd be remiss if we didn't mention the US is also terrible on women's rights. Literally banned abortion, states are removing maritalremoved as a crime, and women are constantly coming forward about their abuse in the workplace, with actors in Hollywood being the most visible.

And then there's the rights of girls. States allow child marriage to adults and Epstein's accomplices are being protected.

But sure, it's Arabs who need to be carpet bombed because we all know you can make bombs and bullets that only kill abusers and misogynists.

There's a book called "The cartel in Ft. Bragg" ? I think? It's about how the special forces (especially delta force) essentially run their own drug cartel and are entirely immune to legal oversight that even the rest of the army is. Anyway, in the book the author interviews a soldier who was a woman who was chosen to work in a support role for the delta force operators. As you can imagine, she (and every other female soldier) was subjected to all kinds of sexual humiliation. She even asked her CO to be deployed so she could "do her job" and he laughed in her face and said her job is basically to be eye candy and bend over when asked. So...yeah. something something every accusation is a confession

"Bad math usually leads to racism" is actually quite a good line that applies outside of this issue too.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 3 points 1 day ago

I feel like it's usually a poor understanding of epistemology wrt the conditions of data being gathered (e.g. not understanding how overpolicing warps arrest rates, the difference between conviction and actual guilt, etc.). Could you explain your thinking?

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 16 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I watched a ton of this guy's clips a few months ago. He's a very witty guy, like I think comedians were supposed to be at some point in the past before things like that were eclipsed by virtues such as being racist, being sexist, etc.

Not that there weren't many deeply bigoted comedians before, there certainly were, but I don't think that was always the extent of the performer's "merits".

His latest video was very good.

No investigation, no right to speak

Obeid is Lebanese-Palestinian-Syrian-Italian-American actually

[–] SwitchyandWitchy@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

Sammy Obeid is great, I think I managed to stumble upon his youtube page a year or so ago and I've been a fan ever since.

This particular heckler could not have come to a better show to have her ignorance shutdown.
