If this were a group of Chinese or Russian celebrities in a similar situation, all the same people in the replies saying it’s not a big deal to say that would be screaming about authoritarianism. These guys aren’t worried about the US government directly coming after them, they are worried about studio execs.

Is there a term for this? The way that suits fill the role of political officers under capitalism? It feels like a concept somebody has explored before, but idk what to google to find it.

Sounds like a system made out of some real faeces. I wonder if there’s a similar word to describe it.

Studio execs and also Pascal had a lot of family who were murdered by Pinochet, including Allende (his great uncle). It’s pretty fucking tacky to bring that up without really asking in advance.

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.
