Matt Walsh is one of the most violent homophobic, transphobic bigot influencers in the world. But Apple, who is led by a proudly out of the closet gay man, is platforming Matt Walsh on their podcast platform.

Alejandra Carabello has called out Apple on Twitter

\u201c@ApplePodcasts @IfBooksPod @RottenInDenmark @The_Law_Boy Have you thought about not platforming vile eliminationists who are engaged in victim blaming, dehumanization, literal demonization, and further incitement of violence against LGBTQ people? You own this. You are complicit.\u201d

Matt Walsh is openly misogynistic.

Even ultra conservative Kristi Noem agrees.

Matt Walsh advocates teen pregnancy

Influencers are taking notice and bringing pressure

\u201cInteresting that Apple Podcasts would censor the title of my Thursday #podcast this week, while continuing to allow Matt Walsh on the platform to incite his audience into attacking Children's Hospital with bomb threats, harassment of the medical staff, and potentially far worse.\u201d
