This might just be me, but I don't like hearing these people put on a fake stutter. I know it's an Alex Jones-ism, but as someone that has a really bad stutter and has struggled with it all my life, it doesn't feel great

It is genuinely shitty to have people whose idea of someone with abhorrent views is someone with a disability/disorder.

No you are right, I adore Tim and his work had a huge effect on me as an adult and my love of ironic humor, but yeah attacking him for a stutter instead of all the myriad of other fucked up things is low and weak.

I've got kinda mixed feelings on this one. They're doing an impression, it seems to me like imitating any relevant speech impediments is gonna need to be part of that imitation. I don't see it as criticizing him for having a stutter, but just having fun with the vocal fingerprint it contributes to. Even if Alex Jones wasn't a complete piece of shit, I think they'd be having fun with the stutter all the same, because that's just part of how he talks and the joke is using "his" voice to say silly things.

It reminds me a bit of how people always imitate Obama saying "uh" a lot. Plenty of them love Obama, it just happens to be a marker that makes his speech stand out.

Yeah I would agree it would suck ass if he added a stutter to Jones voice where there wasn't one, but he's just doing the bit well.

Nobody on earth who recognizes Alex Jones as a goofy moronic asshole thinks its because of the cadence of his speech.

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.
