CNBC FOR COMMENT AND NEITHER ONE
HAS GOTTEN BACK TO US.
>> FIRST BECAME FAMOUS FOR
BARSTOOL SPORTS, BUT THEN HE CAN
BECAME A CULTURAL PHENOMENON IN
THE LAST YEAR HE’S RAISED MORE
THAN $40 MILLION FOR SMALL
BUSINESSES SUFFERING UNDER
GROWN-UP.
HE ALSO HAS A MASSIVE SOCIAL
MEDIA FOLLOWING BECAUSE HE IS
NOT REALLY POLITICAL AT ALL, BUT
HE SAYS WHAT HE THINKS WHICH IS
A RARE THING.
THE AUTHORITIES DON’T LIKE IT.
YESTERDAY HE ANNOUNCED HE
EXPECTED HE WAS BEING SHADOW
BANGED ON SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS
WHICH MEANS THEY’RE MAKING IT
HARD OR IMPOSSIBLE FOR PEOPLE TO
VIEW HIS POSTS.
IS WHAT HE SAID.
>> I’M GETTING SHADOW BAND.
COME ON, INSTAGRAM, I HAD 100
FOLLOWERS LAST NIGHT, THAT’S A
BREAK.
TIK TOK, ASSIST COMMENTS ON
VIDEO.
NOTHING IS WORKING.
NOTHING IS SHOWING UP.
IS BIG PIZZA AFTER ME?
IS THAT BIG FINANCE BECAUSE I
STILL KEEP DIGGING INTO THE AMC
THING?
I DON’T KNOW, WHAT COULD IT BE.
>> WHAT COULD IT BE.
THAT’S THE QUESTION.
WITHOUT WE WOULD AS THE DIRECTLY
.
THANK YOU FOR COMING UNPAIRED
FIRST OF ALL, GOOD FOR YOU FOR
CALLING THEM ON THIS AND PUBLIC.
THAT’S REALLY OUR ONLY DEFENSE.
WHY DO YOU THINK THEY WOULD DO
THIS TO YOU?
YOU’RE NOT RUNNING FOR ANYTHING,
ARE YOU?
>> I’M NOT RUNNING FOR ANYTHING.
IN NEVER REALLY KNOW WHAT YOU’RE
DOING IT.
IT VARIES EVERY TIME.
THEY’RE IS SOMETHING TO SAY IT’S
THE ALGORITHM AND IT MAY NOT BE
AS DEVIOUS, BUT THE ALGORITHM
CERTAINLY PLAYS TO PEOPLE THEY
BE MORE ON THE LIBERAL SIDE.
SO COULD IT BE A MADE FUN OF AOC
?
THAT COULD BE AT.
IT ACTUALLY GOT A LITTLE WARNING
THAT THIS MAY BE FAKE NEWS AND
ALL I SAID WHAT SHE WAS AT THE
RICHEST PART OF THE RICH.
THAT’S REALLY NOT ANYTHING YOU’D
HAVE TO CHECK.
PEOPLE MAY NOT LIKE THAT.
BIG PIZZA, I’M JOKING.
FINANCE?
I CERTAINLY HAVE GONE HARD AT
THE END THE BILLIONAIRES CLUB.
THEY’RE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT
ANGLES, BUT ONE THING IS FOR
SURE, IF PEOPLE IN A CERTAIN
SOCIETY AND IF IT TENDS TO BE A
BIG SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS DON’T
LIKE WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY,
WHETHER YOU LIKE TRUMPER DON’T
LIKE TRUMP, THE FACT THEY KICKED
HIM OFF, TWITTER AND SOCIAL
MEDIA TOTALLY, AND THEN HE HAD
IT ONE POINT THE TALIBAN ON
THERE, THERE’S NO RHYME OR
REASON FOR WHAT’S HAPPENING
BASICALLY ON SOCIAL MEDIA.
SO MANY PEOPLE GET THEIR
INFORMATION FROM THAT.
IT SHOULD BE FREEDOM OF THE
PRESS, BUT YOU CAN’T SUPPRESS
PEOPLE.
>> SHADOW BANNING AS THE MOST
PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE FEELING
CREEPY WAY TO DO IT.
IF THEY WANT YOU OFF TWITTER,
JUST SO YOU CAN’T USE TWITTER
ANYMORE OR INSTAGRAM OR WHATEVER
THE PLATFORM IS, BUT TWO SHADOW
BAY AND YOU COME YOU DON’T EVEN
KNOW WHAT’S HAPPENING.
>> THEN YOU BECOME, IF YOU DON’T
LIKE ME, YOU BECOME THE CRAZY
GUY WITH STRINGS IN YOUR
APARTMENT, OH, THIS GUY DID IT.
IF THEY CAME OUT AND SAID WERE
BANNING DAVE BECAUSE HE SAID
SOMETHING THAT ATTACKS THE RICH
OR BIG PIZZA OR BIG FINANCE,
THERE’D BE AN APPROPRIATE EPIC
HERE, IT’S HARD TO PROVE OTHER
THEN THE SPECIFIC FACT THAT TWO
DAYS IN A ROW I GET NO NEW
FOLLOWERS ON INSTAGRAM.
THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE IT CAN’T
HAPPEN WHEN YOU HAVE AS MANY
FOLLOWERS AS I DO.
I WILL GO SIX-MONTH WITH
THOUSANDS EVERY DAY AND SUDDENLY
I’VE TO?
I SAID SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE
DIDN’T LIKE.
>> I JOKE THAT YOU’RE NOT
RUNNING FOR ANYTHING, BUT WHAT
IF YOU WANTED TO RUN FOR
SOMETHING GREAT YOU CAN’T REALLY
RUN FOR OFFICE IN THIS COUNTRY
WITHOUT SOCIAL MEDIA.
SO THESE COMPANIES ARE BASICALLY
CONTROLLING OUR ELECTIONS.
HOW ARE THEY NOT?
TO GET YOU CERTAINLY CAN PUT
WHAT IS IN PEOPLE’S FEEDS AND I
GET THAT A LOT WITH MY OWN PART
ITS LOOK LIKE LISTEN, WE LOOK AT
EVERY SINGLE THING YOU DO
WHETHER IT’S PIZZA OR WHATEVER
AND WE CAN’T FIND YOU.
IT TAKES TEN MINUTES TO FIND
YOUR POST.
AND IF THERE BANNING ME BY THE
WAY.
WHEN MY INSTAGRAM GOES DOWN IT’S
99 PERCENT IF THEY’RE GOING TO
BAN ME FOR THAT ARE SUPPRESSED
SUPPRESS ME, GOD KNOWS WHAT
THEY’RE DOING TO REALLY
POLITICAL PEOPLE.
SO IT IS A LITTLE NUTS.
>> YOU HUMILIATED AND TAMED THE
NFL COMMISSIONER, ROGER GOODALE. I HOPE YOU DO THE SAME THING TO
I HOPE YOU DO THE SAME THING TO
