Some Democrats condemned left-wing streamer Hasan Piker this week for his controversial comments, in which he suggested a narrative that Jewish people are “singularly invested in Israel” is “very dangerous” for Jewish people.

Piker stated in an Aug. 20 Twitch livestream, “the idea that Jews are monolithic. .

. is a very dangerous mode of propaganda,” claiming, “people don’t f— with Israel any longer, and if Jews in America keep putting this idea out there that they are singularly invested in Israel, eventually someone is going to come around and take action, not against the state of Israel, mind you, but against American Jews.” Piker made the statement while displaying an X post from the account “AIPAC Tracker,” which tracks donations from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, featuring Michigan state Sen.

Jeremy Moss, the Democratic nominee in Michigan’s 11th Congressional District, who is Jewish.

The AIPAC Tracker post suggested Moss hasn’t endorsed Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed, because he’s backed S. military support for Israel and has criticized his opponents for accepting AIPAC donations).
