As I said, I just naively extrapolated it as an extension of rural northern Wisconsin, but I could see its isolation leading to it being more easily radicalized and alienated. I am in a weird spot were all of my contacts in the great lakes regions are admittedly not universal, but like my extended family where my grandparents generation are New Deal/Farmer-Labor types and my parents generation are the conservative Trumpers, and that does color some of my analysis. I also moved to the Great Plains in late 2010s and so my views are also colored by experiencing some social conservatism in the Great Lakes region, but then being blown away at having anti-Choice billboards every 5 miles in the Dakotas. Which may have colored my view of the regions.

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.
