It's Time to Stop Watching Ms. Rachel

I was lucky enough to have children during what I call a "sweet spot" of childhood programming. My kids were born too late for the Barney years, so much of their screen time was limited to reruns of "Sesame Street," episodes of "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse," and lots of old school Looney Tunes. We limited what they watched — "Caillou", for example, was strictly verboten in our household — and it saved not only our sanity but clearly how our children see the world.

Children's YouTuber Ms. Rachel started streaming in 2019, long after children's programming was a thing of the past for us, and she really hit her peak during the 2020 pandemic. But Ms. Rachel is a Left-wing, antisemitic activist, and parents need to stop making her a household name.

During the government shutdown, Ms. Rachel attacked Christians and Republicans for cutting SNAP programs.

"People who say they are Christian and want to cut SNAP, Jesus said to feed the hungry," she posted on Instagram. She also posted, "Imagine slashing SNAP, the program that helps children in the U.S. not go hungry. WHile sending billions in weapons to another country to kill children."

That was clearly a dig at Israel, and it's not the first time she attacked Israel. Last August, she shared a video of a "starving" Gaza girl who was — at the same time — in videos where she shared recipes, dishes, and baked treats. The last time the media pushed that "starving Gaza children" narrative, two Israeli embassy staffers were shot in D.C., and a terrorist killed a Jewish woman in a Colorado fire-bombing incident.

As Ian Fleming wrote, "Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action," and Ms. Rachel is now — once again — engaged in antisemitic behavior.

She liked a comment on an Instagram post that called to "free American from the Jews."

She later issued a tearful apology for it:

But then she doubled down by responding to a post that implied the antisemitic comment Ms. Rachel liked was written by the Jews.

That means her apology was not sincere. Color me surprised.

This isn't childhood programming. This is propaganda, and it's the propaganda that spreads, which encourages the hatred of Israel and American Jews, which has deadly consequences. Parents need to be aware of this and they need to make sure their children do not watch Ms. Rachel, or any other programming that's so biased.

This sort of hatred, directed toward any other demographic group, would not be tolerated by Instagram or YouTube. How many people lost their accounts and channels during COVID when they questioned the vaccine? How many people were booted from Twitter for the Hunter Biden Laptop story (as I was)?
