Fri Dec 06 15:10:00 UTC 2024: **Popular Liberal Podcast “Pod Save America” Under Fire for Baby Onesies Featuring “ANTIFA” and “Birth Control”**
NEW YORK – The popular liberal podcast “Pod Save America,” hosted by three former Obama staffers known as the “Obama Bros,” is facing backlash for its new line of baby onesies. The clothing line, sold through Crooked Media’s online store, features onesies emblazoned with the words “ANTIFA” and “BIRTH CONTROL.”
The “ANTIFA” onesie is particularly controversial, given the group’s history of violence and property destruction. Incidents cited include involvement in the violent 2020 George Floyd riots and a 2022 riot at the University of New Mexico targeting OutKick host Tomi Lahren’s speech. In the latter incident, Lahren and her father were forced to barricade themselves in a room as rioters attacked the building.
While a Crooked Media spokesperson downplayed the clothing line as not being a joke, they also made the controversial statement that “all toddlers are ANTIFA until their souls are broken by capitalism.” This comment has further fueled criticism of the podcast’s seemingly celebratory stance on the group. The “Birth Control” onesie has also drawn criticism for its perceived association with the anti-natalist movement.
The sale of these onesies has sparked outrage among conservatives and others who criticize ANTIFA’s violent tactics and find the messaging insensitive and provocative. The controversy highlights the ongoing debate surrounding the political stances of prominent figures and their influence on public discourse.
