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.

    The source was good enough. I’m simply saying if you’re going to make an objective claim and not provide a source you are asking everyone else to do the same google search. Wasting N peoples time googling a source vs. the one person making the claim.

    You know I’m right. I know it’s hard to read comments and actually understand the nuance in how discussions work but you can do it. I believe in you.
