Ritchie Torres is a huge AIPAC recipient. He is a US congressman in the House of Representative, representing the South Bronx district of NY.

This is a hostile interview. From 40 minutes to the end of the video, Adam Friedland tells Ritchie Torres that supporting Israel is antisemitic. He tells Ritchie Torres that by Democrats promoting Israel's Genocide of Gaza and claiming that all Jewish people want to do Genocide, that Zionists are creating hatred of Jewish people.

The former host of Cumtown is the first media figure to confront or try to push this guy with any kind of humanity

Honestly, I feel like recent event have validated the whole "Dirtbag Left" thing. The Cum boys and Chapo have all been firm and consistent on their condemnation of the genocide in Gaza, meanwhile Breadtube grifters are all pull "well askcully it's very nuanced!" BS.

I think that's just Contrapoints. I'm pretty sure HBomberguy has spoken out against the genocide. And she was never "breadtube," but Lindsay Ellis has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Palestinian children in the past few days with her Ms Rachel video (which I haven't seen yet).

IDK about the other breadtubers (I don't even remember who they are)

He deleted most of those tweets. Hopefully it was to ease getting a visa to make his next video rather than becoming more zionist, but it's still pretty shit.

Matt Bernstein is another example of YouTuber with pretty good takes on Gaza, Palestine and the antisemitism scare.
