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.

So I actually do have disagreement with all of these point, but I feel like airing them will make me look like a massive RLM stan at which point you can just call me a treat chaser or whatever and dismiss them and I've played that game before, I'd rather not again.

I will say this...

Consistency? What's That?: Ever notice how their ratings seem to change with the wind? It's like they're making it up as they go along. Consistency? Nah, that's for real critics, not these jokers.

This is a GamerGate talking point and I've always found it to be beyond stupid and also almost always falls apart once you actually analyze it. Generally the reviews in question have actually articulately why they gave different reactions to similar pieces of media, and even if they didn't, they ain't fucking car reviews. Also you say "ratings" which is weird cuz I don't think RLM has ever given anything a "score" ever.

Again, you're casting aspersions on someone's character.

Don't insinuate something about someone just because you have a disagreement.

You're literally repeating GameGate talking-points right now and defending a racist and sexist reviewer.

and defending a racist and sexist reviewer.

You brought up racism and sexism earlier, I'm curious what you're referring to?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm referring to their TPM review.

lol

It's been a long long ass time since I've watched them. A lot of people say they haven't aged well and I don't doubt it. I'll take your word if there some problematic shit in there but I'd prefer specifics if you are more damning accusations.

They aren't damning; the TPM reviews being sexist and racist are quite well-known.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Alright, they were a while ago and I haven't seen them discussed in years but I will take your word on it.
