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.

VENEZUELA SIT REP NOV 15/25: The reason for struggle (youtu.be)

I'm joined by Cira Pasqual Marquina, author and educator at the Pluriversidad Patria Grande and co-host with Chris Gilbert of the Marxist education program and podast Escuela de Cuadros. I ask her: how are Venezuelans seeing this buildup? What is the analysis of the regional context? Why is the US doing this now? What the Venezuelan revolution is really about. And some speculations for the "day after" the US attack happens.

I just started this book: https://chrisgilbert.site/commune-or-nothing/

It was written in very close collaboration with Cira Pasqual Marquina. I strongly recommend people read it to understand that defending the Bolvarian Revolution is not just your big standard anti-imperialism. The communal socialism building there is some of the most valuable and inspiring work of socialist construction in human history. It MUST be preserved and protected so that it can continue to develop and act as a model for socialism across the planet.

"Building the Commune" is another good book on this subject also.
