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.

Remember what your show said about collaborators.

Deeply disappointed that Ira Stephen Behr lacks the critical thinking skills to see Israel is the bad guy.

Wait til you find out who wrote the screenplay for "Exodus."

I haven't watched the video but, Deep Space Nine???! Aren't the Barjorans supposed to be pretty obvious exbys or Palestinians?!?

Oh noooo I've been had!

Fuck Israel

that whole situation is drawing from many inspirations and it's reductive to narrow it down to one like people who are intellectually lazy or don't actually watch the show will sometimes try to say klingons are "just" space samurai.

They straight up say in behind the scenes stuff Israel/Palestine was their most immediate comparison

I gotta rewatch the ds9 documentary because I'm absolutely certain that one of the writers says in thst doc, which Ira made in 2018 and included in the edit that they were thinking of israel/Palestine when they wrote about Cardassia and Bajor. They were saying that history is loaded with possible examples but that's where they were thinking at the time.

Yeah, you have to remember that nine times out if ten, if there's a story about oppressed people fighting for freedom, it's about Israel

It's one of the major cultural touchstones of the USA
