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.

Meanwhile

Defense Department released its fiscal year 2025 budget request, about $849.8 billion

Look at this copium

I don't understand how its a dunk on China even if it were true. They are able to have high speed rail and quality education on top of a military budget equivalent to the US?

Isn't the meme that "Houthis will learn why we don't have free healthcare"?

'annual analysis by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), which estimates the full range of military spending by country beyond official figures, puts China's military spending at $292 billion in 2022, compared to U.S. spending of $877 billion in the same year.'

It's not even close. There's a few hawks who are trying to say China is ACKSHUALLY spending about 700 billion. Fearmongering as usual.

The main argument is that the US's military spending is very inefficient and corrupt. China is getting so much more bang for their buck.
