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.

I have not vetted the creator because I do not wish to go to twitter.

Marxist examination of malthusianism, "anthropocene", and the development of capital.

Rebuts the argument that this is a natural outcome of humans or "overbreeding" and more a specific productive system, and discusses why fossil fuels were uniquely over-exploited by early capitalists.

Should have more views.

The creator's really good. His podcast, writings , etc. are all solid. Used to label his work explicitly ML on YouTube but I think he just calls it Marxist now to not alienate anyone.

This is the case for all of Prolekult's work. Over and over again they don't get the attention they really deserve despite being actual theory presented in a way that is a cut above the video-essay shit everyone seems to love.
