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.

Professor Jiang is not a professor. He was a high school teacher in Beijing. He was born in China but dislikes China. In 2002, Jiang was arrested in China for being suspected of spying for the US. In 2023, Jiang created a youtube channel called 'Predictive History' where he alleges that he can predict the future using 'game theory'. He claims to have predicted Trump's second presidency and the US-Israel war against Iran.
Professor Jiang has said he considers himself to be a Duginist. He has collaborated with Aleksandr Dugin. Dugin is the founder of the Nazbol party. This would mean that Jiang is aligned with right wing ACP/magacommunism type ideology.
Jiang's youtube channel has 2.7 million subscribers. Jiang regularly does guest commentary for internet news shows and podcasts, including for those aligned with the far right.
The video discusses some of Jiang's many bizarre conspiracy theories.

does it count as predictions if it's the most obvious thing in the world and something officials from both parties have been saying they want to do for 30+ years?
I think his predictions were impressive to people who aren't Marxists or materialists. This is how he amassed an internet following.
Jiang's current predictions are that the US will deploy boots on the ground in Iran and then still lose the Iran war after that, and also that Trump will serve a 3rd Presidential term
I'm not going to say he's right but i could see all that happening
Yeah I mean I predicted it too and I'm an absolute moron.
I literally predicted it down to the exact day and my mom called me when it happened and said "How the fuck did you know" lol
Dude is a Holocaust denier.
So is this guy the new Jordan Peterson? Of course he's even more rabidly right-wing than the old one because everything keeps going more and more to shit
I hope this means he'll have even more bizzarre and melodramatic crashouts than Jorbles. We've seen Russian benzo coma treatments, Taiwanese sex dungeons mistaken as CPC blacksites, a blood feud with Elmo, "Up yours, woke moralists", the heart disease diet; imagine the shit Jiang could get up to.
Its kind of funny. The only video of his that I've taken the time to watch makes him sound kind of ok-ish (it might have been the one where he was talking about consumerism or something along those lines), but then everything that I've heard about him since is just awful.
I had a similar experience where I watched a bit of his stuff some months back when Iran situation was first heating up, it seemed like fairly straightforward analysis of imperialist geopolitics we were all watching play out. And then yeah, looked a bit beyond that to see some other content and it got weird real quick, turned into quite the "nope!".
You mean the thing that everyone knew from the primaries and the thing the US has been threatening to do for a decade? Predictive power off the charts.
When you say he "claims to have predicted", do you mean he claims he predicted those events after the fact?
The oldest video on his youtube channel was uploaded on April 24 2024. In this video he gives a 45 minute lecture on why Iran would win a war against the US. It looks to be filmed in a highschool classroom.
I worded it that way because I think it isn't that impressive of a prediction. The US was already giving unlimited funding to Israel for genocide in Gaza. Trump had assassinated Qassem Soleimani in 2020. Israel had planned to attack Iran for 40 years. Trump pulled out of the JCPOA for Israel. Biden didn't try to reverse the foreign policy decisions of Trump's first term. GW Bush blamed Iran for 9/11 in his 2002 State of the Union address, with the 'Axis of Evil' paradigm.
Jiang declared that Iran would win the US-Iran war on Mar 2 2026 on Breaking pints. Iran first declared that it had won the war on April 7 2026. I think there were many people who had said that Iran would win from the start.
Jiang is just like a bizarro political figure that I see mentioned sometimes in even non-political spaces. He's been talked about on Hexbear and trueanon subreddit.

I want add that Jiang's prediction are based on a belief that Israel and the US are trying to fulfill a biblical doomsday prophecy. Jiang also told Dugin that he believes the US is the literal biblical antichrist and that Russia will defeat the US with the power of Christianity.
So the dynamic is that Jiang is popular enough that he is discussed in the mainstream, non-materialist thinkers are impressed by his predictions, and he says that his predictions are based on fringe conspiracy theories such as doomsday cults.
So about this. What are the chances that the people in power are actually just so braindead and cultish now that the people who happen to subscribe to the same insane cultlike thinking as them can predict what they'll do by way of simply having the same brain poison? Like it's definitely true that the US and Israel have religious motivations for this war. Atleast some of the powerful do. And predicting what a maniac will do is easy if ur high on the same supply they are.
Also of note, he said he had 1-2 students in his class. And the school he taught at was a school for the rich kids who couldn't hack it in the Chinese public school system and he was preparing them for getting in to American schools... That last part actual kinda scans.
it's so difficult to find someone what can explain this theory; every time i ask, i get banned for asking.
Are you asking what social chauvinism is or what Jiang has to do with it?
i ask the acp people what maga communism is and they ban me each time i do.
Oh lol, it be like that
it seems to be like that everywhere. i also get banned when i ask leftists for their opinions on hasan piker or graham platner.
