New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman was blasted this week in a New York Post op-ed after his strange YouTube channel history went viral. Bowman reportedly watches videos about conspiracy theories and consumes antisemitic content.
The Post called him “bonkers.”
From The New York Post:
And now it turns out — in the most unsurprising development imaginable — that Westchester Rep. Jamaal Bowman seems to be an avid consumer of schizoid YouTube conspiracy theories.
Is there anything the man can’t do?
The Daily Beast dug up Bowman’s personal YouTube account (ID’d based on the account’s use of Bowman’s longtime screen name “Inner Peace” and the fact that it features his image and videos from the school where he served as principal) and called the Squad member out for the loony stuff he subscribes to.
Like BreakThrough News, a laundry for Russian and Chinese propaganda and viciously antisemitic content (with connections to Maoist millionaire Neville Roy Singham).
Or Afripost, a staunch fan of Nation of Islam muckamuck Louis Farrakhan.
Hmmmmmm. Starting to detect a theme here?
Beyond the hateful, there’s also just the bizarre.
Like Video Advice, which shares content like “This CIA Document Literally Explains Time Travel (practical steps included).”
Don’t forget actual channels of disinfo like the Thinkers Forum, a seeming cutout for organs of China’s government.
Full op-ed over at The New York Post:
