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.

Looks like Iran is gonna fight Israel + US/NATO alone, Putin says the strategic partnership with Iran didn't include defence, and Iran didn't request any help from Russia at this time. There are unverified rumours (flight tracker) of at least two Chinese heavy transport air crafts flying into Iran since the hostilities started, again unverified. Don't think China will enter this, maybe just some behind the scenes intelligence help for Iran.

big difference between US-NATO and China-Russia in this conflict. US-NATO has clearly defined who their ally is (Israel) and who the enemy is (Iran), whereas China-Russia wants to maintain good relations with Israel after this conflict.

Seems like a good opportunity for China to test out some of their SAM systems against the F35

[–] CommCat@hexbear.net 9 points 2 weeks ago

it will have to be operated by the PLA itself which means direct entry of China into the war. Highly unlikely.

Pakistan might be helping Iran, at least in an informal capacity. I hope so anyway.

Pakistan's army chief was invited to Trump's parade and had lunch with Trump yesterday. Wonder what they were discussing? Remember Pakistan let Amerikkka use their bases to bomb their own people.

I read that as personally influencing him toward peace, since Trump has surrounded himself with Iran hawks

Pakistan is IMO compromised by the CIA. They coup them when they please, remove populist leaders, it's a joke. So for that reason I feel Pakistan if anything is acting like Turkey. That is posturing, making promises they have no intention of fulfilling to get off domestic heat from their people an to fluff their image and credentials as propaganda and in this case to deceive Iran into thinking it has more support than it does and/or that someone would use nukes on their behalf (not a chance, Pakistan will not get nuked by the zionist entity to avenge Iran).

I know we'd just get accused of being armchair Westoid leftist generals, but still very disappointing to see China and Russia refuse to do anything against the Zionist Entity for Palestinians, Iranians, Hezbollah, or Yemen. I know China is waiting to be in a better position, which I understand as a long term commitment, but I feel like I don't understand what their red line is, no pun intended.

NATO won't stop at those borders. The West's claim about Russia and China expansionism is pure projection and they will eventually try to isolate and come for Russia and China as well. Putin knows that though which is why NATO is getting owned in Ukraine at least.

[–] i_c_b_m@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 2 weeks ago

At least on the surface that seems to be the case. Which doesn't seem good. Couple points though:

Iran is a hub of a new strategic international shipping corridor with China via the new rail system. This corridor changes western hegemony on shipping lanes. China and Russia have energy deals with Iran that they are strategically interested in preserving.

Israel has no satellites for intel and targeting. The US withdrew forces in the shortly before Israels sneak attack. This entire attack was planned and coordinated with the US long before this moment, but the US claims they are "not a party". Well, China and Russia (and other interests) can also be "not a party".

I don't know much. Iran does seem confident and I'm trying to look beyond my own doomerism.

Hes right but both Russia and China should help more , I don’t think China’s interventionism will keep working when the inevitable happens
