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.

It's Chinese for 'IP checks out', i.e. you're from a .uk instance, and one with a poor reputation for political literacy. ~~But, to your credit, at least you're seemingly hoping to learn~~. I hope that similarly to how you were able stop being an 'anti-liberal'* transphobe from watching debates, you'll continue to mature and watch and read from sources wider than online debate streamers, like, actually reading scholarly writing other. You'll quickly come to realise how out-of-depth Destiny is.
UI didn't say anything against your educational background, I was explaining what IP正确 meant. Also like, i only half wrote that sentence it shoulda been something like 'and other materials on the subject' bit i was making toast and didn't proofread. I guess you're right that the debate wasn't enlightening, I found it a waste of time too, so I'm wondering why you're saying destiny held his own when you're capable of seeing that he wasn't.
Because this instance is anti-liberal, but we use the term differently from how you used it. So if I said "we're also actually anti-liberal" without further context then 99.99% certain you'll say we're right-wingers and dismiss us out-of-hand. I say this as a former 'liberal' myself. We don't use liberal as shorthand for 'democrat', we understand it in the lockian sense
Particularly around the modern capitalist state and defence of private property. On this, both 'sides' of politics agree and are in essence liberals.
We are very prickly, yes. But this thread is relatively tame.
Edit: rip bozo
You’re sea lioning for a sex criminal, you’re not going to find a ton of sympathy here
Honestly if you want to learn more on the subject, debates are not a good way. It may seem engaging but on a topic with extensive history and sensitivity such as this these its best to seek other means. Especially when it involves that sex pest destiny
I agree kind of :) They're absolutely not a replacement for actual research, but I think videos like these can inspire interesting questions which encourage further reading. Most people as well probably aren't willing to critically and factually research a given subject, so well structured and fact based debates I think could be helpful for helping inform a wider audience maybe
Tbh very rarely are debates you find on youtube well structured and really fact based. A lot of times its more about arguing semantics or finding logical traps in the others rhethoric more so than spreading knowledge on the subject. And very rarely does it change minds. Maybe it did for you but believe me when I say that is an exception. Generally vast majority of the audience just comes to affirm their believes through a vehicle or a mouthpiece. Its unfortunate but it is what it is.
Do you have an example of what you believe is a “well structured and fact based debate?”
The Michael Brooks vs Destiny debate.
Lmao I have no idea why people are seriously engaging this simpleton, he’s either beyond stupid or playing like it (distinction without a difference)
Hey, this is totally irrelevant to the thrust of your comment, but do you have reason to believe vincentmario uses he/him pronouns, and if not, would you mind changing the pronouns in your comments to be gender neutral? It's good practice to not assume that everyone on the internet is a man.
Man stfu
I realize now they’re probably trolling. We’re just too good faith on HB, assuming people who ask questions may genuinely want to learn
I gave him the benefit of the doubt until about 3 comments in.
Good to see a lemme.ee with agreeable takes. You gonna join hexbear or stay a secret agent?
I just make a new account whenever i get banned (a lot because I hate libertarian computer toucher idiots and love to tell them this) and lemm.ee is the easiest/quickest I’ve found

Keep up the good fight
