On October 8, 2023, the day after the Re'im music festival massacre, Puryear helped organize a rally in support of Palestine in Times Square.
He was recorded giving a speech in which he celebrated the massacre, saying, "And as you might have seen, there was some sort of rave or desert party where they were having a great time, until the resistance came in electrified hang gliders and took at least several dozen hipsters, and I'm sure they're doing very fine despite what the New York Post says".
When questioned about his words five days later, he re-affirmed them and stated that "Palestinians are right to resist".
In the 2008 and 2016 United States presidential elections, Puryear was the vice presidential nominee of the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL).
