Does it represent capital? I saw it more as specifically US Intelligence.

Same thing.
:::spoiler US intelligence is an arm of capital… or more specifically US intelligence is the convert action arm of the US executive branch (white house & its national security council) and that is a direct representative of US private capital. :::

That is true, and I agree 100%. I was just saying that in the context of the podcast and the whole theme of Blowback, they examine how US intelligence agencies and armed forces maintain a cycle of violence that can refresh capital with new fronts of exploitation. So the weird goo stuff is more specific than the entirety of capital.

It’s a podcast, but the first 3 seasons are fantastic. I’d recommend them.

They are absolutely amazing. However, you can go ahead and listen to this season first. I don’t think you need to catch up.

They’re all self-contained examples of blowback, each season is a deep dive on a specific historical example of blowback. They’re all great and I would reccomend you pick one of the previous seasons and listen to it. Season 4 will be coming out slowly for free or rapidly if you pay for it.

I recommended you listen to an earlier season but you could instead just go here to the below post. This will let you download Season 4 and talk about it with people while everybody is talking about it. Whether you’re poor or undecided you can always pay for it later when you have cash or decide you like it. That’s what I did for the second season.

I noticed that my credit card had been charged for 'Blowback" and I was like “wtf I didn’t know that was a recurring charge is there even a new season?” Yes, there is and I’m happy to pay for it.

I can sense it. Not yet present, but on the verge of being. The trough. It dwells just beyond my vision. Full of fresh and tasty slop. Soon. Soon, my snout descends.

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.
