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 feels to me like if you're saying something like that without the context of segregation and with a society that collaborates with Africa in the Belt and Road, then it seems innocuous enough.

The American music artist and actor "The Weekend" is of Ethiopian descent. He grew up in North America but the major metropolitan cities in the US and Canada have large Ethiopian communities. Since North American music and entertainment reaches international audiences, I assume some of the Chinese public is aware of him and if they spent any time working in Ethiopia or the US they probably consumed some of his work.

Fun fact, we celebrate New Year on September 11th each year.
