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.

Russia's economy is the best performing in Europe right now by far - by far. It's performing better than most advanced economies, even.
Isn't part of that just due to the fact that it's a war economy?
Russia is sort of in a war economy, but the bigger reason they're doing well is because the sanctions have forced Russia to abandon the dumbest parts of neoliberalism and instead to rely on import substitution. The sanctions also prevents the ruling class in Russia from taking their money and putting them elsewhere, which means that Europe kind of introduced capital controls on Russia, which is really funny considering Europes fierce opposition to them in any other context.
War economy is a good thing. War communism is even better.
Russia is currently in between neoliberal austerity (where most of Europe is at) and war economy (where Russia should really plunge itself into).
