I'm not a crackpot connoisseur, but I enjoyed this video! Can't say I absorbed 100% of it, but I think I could at least convey some of the basic observations if dark matter came up in casual conversation.

Also, that page for the dark matter rap contains the first instance I've ever seen of rap lyrics typeset in LaTeX...I love it.

Lmao she calls economics a "hard science" when talking about Nate Silver michael-laugh

Liberal economics is not a hard science.

Her heart is in the right place, bless her, but whatever theory she’s read isn’t Marxist.

She can probably be fixed, just need to ask her what would happen if the crackpots were in charge of the sciences, then explain that is what has happened to economics via the chicago school.

I can fix her (in this equation, I = richard wolf and the first volume of capital)

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.
