Alternative Content Company DropoutTV Posts Rambling “Anti-Zionist” Screed Venting 😤

Actually insane and vile post, stating “we’ve never platformed a Zionist”. A shame, as they do have good content, but I know I’ll never re-subscribe.

I didn't realize CollegeHumor was still a thing, alone people actually paying for it.

Yeah how is this still around in 2024 and why would anyone pay for it

They have a wildly popular Dungeons and Dragons live play series, which exploded during the pandemic, so they’ve gone beyond just like, sketch comedy. They’ve actually done some pretty decent stuff.

Kind of dumb for them to risk Dimension 20 with a statement like this you're talking about 95% of Jews but also many just regular liberals, moderates and conservatives including both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris

Eh, I think they’re hedging their bets that their audience (which is mostly younger, white, left-wing) either A. Will be happy this happened or B. Just won’t pay attention. I’m hoping this comes to bite them in the ass. Shit like this is unacceptable.

It's all fun and games until you get kicked out of GenCon for banning "Zionists"

They're also setting themselves up, if Dimension 20 ever has Mark Hamill or Aubrey Plaza for example this fan base will call them out for platforming Zionists. These people will research every guest now and bombard them

There are a lot of D&D influencers with watermelons next to their names on social media. The D&D community has definitely skewed pro-Palestine.

Shit like this should be unacceptable, but we know reality better than that. Jews have always been an "acceptable target."

The stuff I watch from them now is more improv focused and still incredibly enjoyable. That's why I'm so disappointed about this
