A video that blamed the Jews for the Holocaust has been taken down from the right-wing video platform Rumble, with a Rumble spokesperson saying in an email to the Forward that it violated their policies.
The now-deleted episode of “The Fresh and Fit Podcast” — which has 1.57 million YouTube subscribers — originally aired last Monday. Backlash exploded later in the week when Canary Mission posted a clip on X. The anonymously run website usually publishes profiles of pro-Palestinian activists in an attempt to blacklist them, but on Thursday they circulated a video in which guests on the popular “mens’ rights” podcast said to “kill the motherf—ers” — meaning Jews — while the hosts laughed, nodded, and said Hitler “had to do what he had to do.”
Rumble’s terms and conditions do state that content “that is grossly offensive to the online community, including but not limited to, racism, anti-semitism and hatred” should “under no circumstances” be submitted to the platform. But many of Rumble’s videos include antisemitism and the “Fresh and Fit” show also has a history of antisemitism.
The podcast has hosted prominent Holocaust denier and white nationalist Nick Fuentes multiple times. Co-hosts Walter Weekes and Amrou Fudl, who goes by Myron Gaines, also often play the sound of a cash register going “cha-ching” when discussing Jewish people, according to the watchdog group Media Matters. YouTube demonetized the “Fresh and Fit” channel in 2023 after repeated violations of the platform’s community guidelines.
Gaines was also among the antisemitic influencers invited to debrief an interview between the Nelk Boys and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier this month.
“Here’s the problem: Jews run America and they use their influence to subvert our government, our culture, and get us into a bunch of foreign wars,” Gaines said during the livestream.
What was in the deleted video?
The deleted video, from a segment titled “After Hours w/ Girls,” included this exchange.
“What if the Jewish did something to the Germans that made them act a certain way, but nobody wants to talk about it? Like the Jews don’t want to take accountability,” said a woman on the six-person podcast panel, identified by Canary Mission as a recent high school grad named Suzette.
“They was up to something, so the Germans wanted to take them out. Like, it had to be something,” she continued.
“They started it,” another woman chimed in.
“How do we take them down?” co-host Walter Weekes asked.
“We gotta kill the motherf—ers,” responded a second woman, identified by Canary Mission as Kadriyanna James.
“Genocide,” someone replied in the background.
“Yeah, I mean, Hitler, he had the plan, but his plan was just too like, very like, gruesome,” Suzette continued.
“Listen, he had to do what he had to do,” Weekes said of Hitler.
The backlash
On Thursday, New York Rep. Ritchie Torres posted to X condemning the video.
“It is profoundly disturbing to see young social media influencers casually rationalize Hitler and the Nazi regime’s systematic extermination of six million Jews during the Holocaust. The only thing more terrifying than Holocaust denial is Holocaust glorification,” he wrote.
“The comfort with which these commentators defend the most evil man ever to roam the earth should send chills down the spine of every decent person.”
After receiving backlash online, Suzette posted to Threads that she does not support “the killing of innocent lives,” still has “love for the Jewish community,” was “trying to see both sides,” and “we in Florida don’t get educated about Jews.”
