Say what you will about Hbomberguys long videos, but you can tell he puts in the time to make them entertaining and thought-provoking. Keffals videos are just her talking into a camera with the same monotone voice and occasionally playing clips while responding with, "Wow! That's insane (insert 28 different slurs) ahaha I'm autistic and edgy."
From what I understand, the hbomb video was basically a massive evidence dump of people doing plagiarism.
It was very well done but there were people complaining about its length and it's a recurring complaint with his videos. I don't really mind the length as long as the effort is put into it and he clearly puts it in.
This video posted is like those ten hour film reviews that are just some guy whining about wokeness in his movie for five times the length of the actual movie.
IMO the length isnt the core problem but moreso that he structured the video in a series of segments about specific individual creators, and he doesn't really account for methods of plagiarism that he has already detailed and demonstrated at length.
Which means that since all the plagiarists do basically the same kind of plagiarism, it can very easily be very tiring to have him start going through point by point, line by line, the 3rd creator in a row to have copy pasted text then mildly edited it, rather than him going like "ok, then X repeated the same tactic as before by switching out these words" in a shorter way.
Damn, sounds like the 3-point essay method could have made some strides there. I wouldn't know if he used it though. 4 hours is more time than I have at the moment.
I would say that unless you are specifically interested in the two first cases(an IGN guy and AVGN) and particularly if you know about those cases already, its 100% fine to just skip those segments entirely, they dont particularly build towards the rest of the video.
HB's video is long because he shows his receipts, not because he rambles forever and ever. Hell, it comes with an hour long companion video with even more receipts, for the real sickos out there.

Breadtube: Gets some black creators and has some advocates that it needs to be less fucking white.
Keffals:
It's literally an unedited stream titled to make it seem like a scripted drama video
These anti-breadtube types loooove slapping a video essay lookin' thumbnail on their shitty streams.
Tbh I think the same kind of egotism that would drive someone to want to specifically be known as the one person who beat KF is exactly the same kind of egotism that would escalate to this kind of behavior.
I completely forgot she was the one who did that. It was buried under all the bad takes.
A lot of it is calling providers, ddos attacks, social pressure stuff like that.
Website is only reliably reached right now through the tor browser thing
NINE HOURS!?!?
At that point, why not just go take a walk or start to learn guitar or something?
This is by far the video topic and creator combo that least justifies this length of video.
I literally do not even think this video is legitimately 9 hours, theres some nonsense going on.
Whiteness is a construct and none of the racists can even agree on who is and isn't white
It really is kinda arbitrary. If his name wasn't "Hasan" it probably wouldn't even be a discussion.
yes he is white there are white muslims and most turks are white. saying hes not white is really weird behavior. if being muslim makes someone not white then there could be no white muslims and there definitely are because the have completely different experiences then nonwhite muslims.
Yeah, I know there are white Muslims. I've seen lots of blue-eyed blond-haired Muslim Bosnians. I'm just wondering if there's a limit to what Americans would consider white.
Like I know a Palestinian guy with fair hair and blue eyes, but I've never asked him if he considers himself white.
there's a limit to what Americans would consider white
according to hasan who would know the most about his lived experience, he is white, he has white privilege, and is treated in his day to day life as a white man. only internet racist think hes not white and they are a loud minority and not the average american. white people are actually pretty bad at spotting nonwhite or "spicy white"people imo. like lots of people are white passing only to white people, have you ever seen old photos of white passing black people? its an interesting question for sure. edit spelling fixed

is Jessie in the big leagues now? she's just like mostly a star trek creator (but her politics videos are good). it's been fun watching her go from socdem to revolutionary communist
also fuck keffals
IIRC she went the direction of a 
-style liberal and keeps punching left at more radical internet personalities.
I thought she was cool with the war on kiwifarms but she seems to have lost her mind and become a clout demon. Or she always was and I never noticed.
Just did a quick check, it's 9 hours of her streams. The lowest amount of effort possible, just doubling up on the content for them sweet sweet 'Tubebucks.
Every time I've ever been inclined to humor breadtube stuff I just come away thinking: "This was a compelling case for China-style internet censorship of e-celebrities."
I wonder if there are enough "the fall of Breadtube" -type videos to make a collage like the ones for "china is collapsing".
I've never been so happy to not recognize people or not know what something could possibly be about!
supplementing the 9 hour keffals anti-breadtube video with the Caleb Maupin anti-breadtube book
Yea, I can justify watching a nine hour video on say, historical materialism or dialectical materialism in general, but on breadtube, just why, is there really that much to talk about?
Talk about? No. Angrily rant about and smugly insist that they're all cuck soyboys? That's something someone could do for 9 hours. Apparently.
Just make a podcast and release it in episodes. Most video essayist just talk into a camera anyway. I don’t think I’ve watched a video in two year when this hour+ madness started popping off.
foreign is so cool, way cooler than keffals smh
but regardless i cant believe people sit around and watch this drama shit for 9 hours
How can something die when it never had a significant impact in the first place, aside from making online discussion both less and more shitty at the same time?
F.D. Signifier, his stuff is pretty good. Talks a lot about the manosphere types and offers some pretty interesting perspectives on them.
