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.

(many of whom have since admitted they were funded or straight up supplied with weapons by the US)

I've seen obvious evidence about this, e.g. they used petrol bombs at a time when petrol was heavily rationed in China, but I've never seen an admission like this. Do you have a source?

I don't to hand and it's really late here. I can try and look tomorrow if work isn't too busy. I have a feeling it's in an interview with people from the various groups that was in a non-English documentary, maybe Dutch. But I think I've read it too. I'll do my best so long as you don't mind waiting a while.

No worries! I'd really like to see it, so feel free to tag me in a post or send a DM whenever it is that you come across it again. I'm sure others here would be interested as well!
