Episode 302: Dr. Scott Galloway: Censorship, Anti-Semitism, and Social Media's Influence on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

Social media has brought about a paradigm shift in the way we communicate, share information, and form opinions. But what happens when social media causes division or silences the voices of those speaking up? Today I’m joined by Dr. Scott Galloway, a Jewish atheist, who shares the escalating issues of censorship and anti-Semitism, especially in the digital age.  We discuss the alarming rise of anti-Semitism, its impact on Jewish communities, and the role of media in propagating this issue. We also dive into the influence of social media platforms like TikTok in shaping societal views and the potential involvement of the Chinese government in promoting divisive content. We go over the increasing trend of censorship on social media and its effect on meaningful conversations like the Israel-Palestine conflict. Dr. Scott Galloway is a clinical professor of marketing at the New York University Stern School of Business, public speaker, author, podcast host, and entrepreneur.
