@[email protected] used to make great agitprop videos. Before retiring, they left a Mega folder with all their videos. I spent an entire evening writing a 100 line Python script to bulk upload their videos to a peertube instance.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

Anyone knows what they use to generate TTS? I'm assuming they don't record themselves lol

[-] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago

It's an AI generated voice trained on the voice actor Harry Jon Benjamin who would probably approve of using for left wing agitation

Dunno how long ago you joined us, but the posts were incredibly popular on the old subreddit, and around the time of the founding of the site. So if that was before your time, that's probably why.

Can you do the same with Paul Robeson's movies?

Famous communist.

I don't have those. Or the other documentary you mentioned. Looks interesting though.

Can you do the same thing you did with the Eugen V. Debs collection?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

It's not an Eugene V. Debs collection in the way you are thinking it is

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.
