Michael Rapaport won’t stay silent on Hamas’ barbaric attacks against Israel.
The actor, known for memorable turns in “Justified,” “Beautiful Girls” and Netflix’s “Atypical,” has been flexing his social media accounts against Hamas since the terror group’s Oct. 7 attack that killed 1,200 Jews.
Day after day. Video after video.
Rapaport, like fellow stars Patricia Heaton and Amy Schumer, can’t stop talking about the worst atrocities against the Jewish people since the Holocaust.
That activism got Antifa’s attention.
The far-Left group claims to fight fascism but tries to silence anyone to its political Right. And it supports the Palestinian cause unconditionally.
Now, it’s targeting a Portland-based comedy club where Rapaport is scheduled to appear this weekend. The actor is best known for his dramatic work, but in recent years he’s segued to the stand-up stage.
Not if Antifa has anything to do about it.
The X account @BashTheFash161 posted a graphic demanding fellow Antifa members convince the Helium Comedy Club to cancel the five performances.
Why?
Rapaport supports Israel’s “genocidal” attacks on the Palestinian people, a fallacious talking point supported by the far-Left and even celebrities like Cynthia Nixon and Susan Sarandon.
If not, they’ll show up personally to do what they can to shut the shows down. Does that mean by any means necessary?
Portland comrades: Protest against zionist Michael Rapaport unless the show is cancelled. Fri-Sun 1/12-14 6pm @ 1510 SE 9th Ave (Helium Comedy Club)

The account has a small social media footprint – just 339 followers – but it also boasts a Discord account with 950 members.
A growing collective of international antifascists, bringing you updates on issues and events around the globe.
Antifa’s violent streak is well known, captured in journalist Andy Ngo’s book, “Unmasked: Inside Antifa’s Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy.” The social media graphic features an image of Rapaport with his eyes X’d out, as if he were dead.
Rapaport Tweets aggressively most days, but his X account hasn’t mentioned the protests as of yet. A recent post showed him skewering a UN court for charging Israel with genocidal crimes.
Only ISRAEL would have to defend itself in the

Rapaport’s politics lean to the Left, but he occasionally leaves progressives behind to speak his mind. The Jewish star recently railed against his fellow celebrities for staying silent about the ongoing crisis during the Golden Globes telecast.
“I’m embarrassed that not one person said one thing, unless I’m mistaken at the Golden Globes the other night, about the 133 hostages that were kidnapped in broad daylight from Israel on October 7th.”
