In a Tuesday episode of the This Past Weekend podcast, Von dismissed any national security concerns being floated about the China-owned TikTok platform, arguing the prevalence of content related to Israel’s bombing of Gaza — where thousands of civilians have been killed — is the real reason the government is uncomfortable.
“I believe that they don’t want people sharing the truth about the genocide in Palestine and that’s why they’re doing it. I believe that that’s what it is and TikTok is one of those places where people can still do that. And they want to own it. They want to own it, dude,” the podcaster and comedian said.
Who?
Comedian who runs a podcast. This is an important event imo because he rubs shoulders with right wing dumbasses and has them in his audience as well. The more they hear opposing viewpoints the better.
Yes. Him having Bernie on was a great moment as well.
I swear it would be worth the effort to love bomb right wing media types when they do get stuff right, so many seem to be narcissistic

Podcast Bro, best not to pay attention or attention to anyone who listens to them.
It’s extremely valuable that a right-adjacent podcast host is directly saying that Israel is committing a genocide. The more normies/politically unengaged are told this, the better
Especially because the US gov has indirectly admitted to being concerned about pro palestine “propaganda” on tiktok. So its not even a conspiracy theory
People who hate podcasts are so weird to me. Especially stuff like Theo Von. Dude just makes jokes.
