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.

Yea, obviously vigilante justice comes with issues.

With prison abolition, its not necessarily against 'separating someone from society'.

But that's... Imprisoning them? If we trap abusers in a place they can't leave, that's a prison.

prison itself is a threat for more violence to victims in many cases (for example, vigilante justice against your rapist will send you there to be further raped).

Yes, and I don't want such people sent to prison. Or speeders, or drug "crimes" or probably other things. But I still think we need to remove people from others, and I suppose a prison is less severe then just killing 'em.

If it were a fairly normal community, except it is separated from society, that is far more acceptable I think.

But you do need to make sure they can't leave, physically. How would that not be a prison? I mean we could improve on our current prisons a lot, and should. But when I start imagining how you would actually, physically keep potentially dangerous people away from society...

Also I just don't think child abusers deserve that.

Yeah, I guess thats true, but I feel like its a semantics thing and there needs to be a better word than 'reform' or 'prison abolition'. Restorative justice feels nice at least
