Regarding the old 'revtube' idea...

...this could be a good starting point:

That would be pretty sweet, though folk should keep the youtube channel as well.

If someone who could actually do that did that, it would be great.

I think that a youtube community group would be a better Idea, There wouldn't be a large enuff member base I wouldn't think. If someone could spend the time and money to make a website I would definatly check it out though.

It seems pretty unlikely that anyone will shell out for the hosting of the actual videos - considering the bandwidth that'd rinse, it's cost a bomb.

I think our best bet getting something "independent" of youtube would be to have an external site which indexes left wing youtube videos and have those vids embedded on the site... sort of like how the old stencil DB indexed stencils in to different categories - we could have different sections like Speeches, Anti-fascism, DIY, etc

The boneheads have still got that monster ''88tube'' online. It's only right we have some sort of response.
