"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

Meanwhile 100s of Hitler appreciation video essays, orientalist anti-China, and Islamophobic videos are still online.

Saw that yesterday, that's fucked and he's not the only one affected. Vikas Music' Charlie Kirk mock music video also got taken down some days ago.

Anticommunists suppressing something favourable to the People’s Republic of China? Oh, the irony…

I would advise using tankie.tube

The video is available there + it's self-hostable + decentralized + free as in freedom / libre (definition: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html) + it's a community of tankies free from ultras, centrists, and right wingers like lemmygrad.

[–] Cowbee@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 3 months ago

Seconding this, the more established we have our own spaces the better off we are.

I was on tankie tube but the encoding taken way too long every upload. Sometime they failed after an hour of buffering and I had to re-upload. I unfortunately self doxed because I uploaded with my personal username and had to delete the channel. That's another thing you can't change pf name. BTW I was the person who uploaded this video, and hardcoded sub with ffmpeg. The account name I used on reddit was permabanned along with the sub shutdown for making 9/11 meme. I also recently uploaded Dead to Rights and 731.

[–] funky_tomatoe@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Where can I find 731? A search doesn't seem to find it ._.

[–] VladimirLimeMint@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Here it is comrade. https://archive.org/details/evil-unbound-731-2025

Also, Dead to Rights. https://archive.org/details/dead-to-rights-2025

You can also click the username and will find like a dozen of other movies and videos I've uploaded. I'm still uploading more, right now hardcoding English sub to Young Karl Marx. It's a little hard to search on IA.

I'm seeding this and encourage anyone capable to do the same.

Hakim also brought this up on the 200'th deprogram episode when talking about the reddit takedown & several of his videos getting narced right alongside stating that he'll likely put up another one and go overboard with the sourcing.

Interestingly Mr. Terry History's response & discussion to it is still up. Along with the full video which is... mildly comical.

[–] Malkhodr@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

It's kinda funny to me that theory was a brief period where Mr Terry started reacting to Hakim. Iirc he honestly wasn't very bad faith, and pretty open to learning other narratives.

I assume he stopped cuz chuds in the comments were mad. But those few videos were definitely an interesting little expirement to say the least.

[–] Ithharr@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 3 months ago

Mr. Terry thankfully hasn't. The last one he put out that was of interest was tracking the history of mass deportations in the USA and he's still avoiding bad-faith argumentation which is pretty decent.

If you want "so close but endlessly infuriating by regurgitating state propaganda" in comparison, there's the work/job-hunt focused Damon Cassidy. Will point out flaws, will talk to people who are aware of these flaws, and will talk to trade unionists then.... talk about their personal want to talk to Mike Rowe of Dirty Jobs (who is anti-union, has questionable views on secondary education, and is on a good day an american libertarian.)

[–] space_comrade@hexbear.net 16 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What was the official reason why they deleted it?

possibly a mass-reporting campaign, terminally online right wingers are very active right now

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 16 points 3 months ago (2 children)

right wingers are very active right now

Hey now, don't sell libs short; they also hate information that doesn't reinforce their existing beliefs

[–] Ithharr@lemmygrad.ml 14 points 3 months ago

Outside of the "my decorum" pearl-clutching, the difference between right-winger & liberal is painfully small. Even worth calling it non-extant.

[–] 201dberg@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Libs ARE right wingers.

[–] Maeve1@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 3 months ago

True, proof isn't required, usually.

[–] saolandarwinf@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 3 months ago

Nice video, I didn't see it before it was taken down.
