Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy<\/a> lambasted the social media “cesspool” he says fuels hate after a shocking antisemitic encounter while filming a “One Bite” pizza review in Starkville, Mississippi.<\/p>\n

“A kid came up [shouting], \u2018F the Jews,\u2019 threw a bunch of coins at me,” Portnoy shared on “My View with Lara Trump.”<\/p>\n

“I’ve given [the incident] a lot of thought and I think there’s a variety of factors [concerning] how we’ve gotten here. People aren’t putting their foot down. It starts at colleges, people are getting away with basically threatening and intimidation and hate speech and\u2026 it’s not being contended the way it should.”<\/p>\n

Portnoy, who is Jewish, said such behavior has been amplified on social media, which gives a platform to people who spread hateful views and lets them find community with others.<\/p>\n

“The internet is a cesspool. Social media has allowed what I would think faceless names who\u2026 live in a corner of their own lives, and they’re not normal people\u2026 to express themselves online,” he said.<\/p>\n

“There’s a couple of hate people<\/a> out there, a couple [of] sites, [and] they all kind of follow these people, and it’s a place for them to meet, and it grows and grows online.”<\/p>\n

In Portnoy’s case, former Mississippi State University student Patrick McClintock, 20, was arrested and charged with disturbing the peace, a misdemeanor.<\/p>\n

McClintock was heard allegedly yelling, “Hey, f— the Jews, f— you, Dave.”<\/p>\n

Portnoy said the public response to the incident<\/a> gave him some hope. Instead of encouraging the perpetrator, bystanders confronted him and later apologized for the encounter.<\/p>\n

“That was super uplifting,” he said.<\/p>\n

“Everybody was screaming at that kid. Everybody apologized to me all weekend. I didn’t want apologies. I want outrage that this is happening.”<\/p>\n

Portnoy said the incident reflects a broader problem fueled by online anonymity and outrage, telling Lara Trump he receives similar hateful messages every day on X and Instagram.<\/p>\n

“You know what all these people have in common? They cover their face,” he said. “They’re not real people, and it’s hard not to pay attention to it, but this new social media really plays a huge factor<\/a> in that they can kind of validate themselves. In the past, where did these people go? You didn’t do out in public, they had nobody to talk to, but it’s almost like they’re forming these little groups online. It’s an echo chamber where they think it’s OK. It’s nuts.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
