He should know. Made a living making propaganda against minorities. Fuckwit.

What a hypocrite. The biggest lie of all time and the biggest propaganda machine is RELIGION. Hard to take him seriously when he can’t see the forest through the trees.

Hypocrisy of the highest level right here, this is the guy that coined the song 'throw the Jew down the well', I bet labour and momentum plays that tune at most of their fund raising parties.

Pompous self-aggradisement of the most nauseating sort. Still love his comedy though.

Social media platforms and their creators should be investigated, charged and convicted for dumbing down the world’s societies. Kill ‘like’ and the emoji and disable forwarding.

a MUST read! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Some of the replies to this story are incredible... people are terrified of having their views challenged. He is spot on

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 DeleteFacebook

Bet he has some serious bogies

Then they are in good company. The BBC Have Your Say regularly hosts messages warning of the New World Order Jewish conspiracy and how Mossad psy-ops corrupt the world The Moderators consider them relevant, on topic, and not in the slightest bit offensive

Branches of old humanity (politicians, corporations and war leaders) are at war with new humans (Those who have grown up with internet) The only way they can win is if they muddy the internet or clog it with consumerism all together

Spot on

So let’s get this right, we only allow the truth as told to us by this man and his followers. Why does this remind me of the internet in China. ♥️

Baron Cohen shouts at the messenger FB like a man shouting at the rain. Demonizing alternative views on world history (Conspiracies he calls them) because we no longer need nor trust the mainstream media is ridiculous. Go lookup the Gulf of Tonkin incident.

Propaganda here kids is code for ideas ' I don't like'.

From performer Sacha Baron Cohen, about ads in Facebook: 'If a neo-Nazi steps isnto a restaurant saying he wants to kill Jews, must the oenwrt of the place serve him a meal or have the moral obligation to kick the Nazi out? So do Facebook and other internet companies'.

I still think this is a Dude telling everyone they're idiots if they don't lean left and want exactly what he wants...I think we put way too much importance on the effect of FB and Twitter. Most every looney thing I see, is checked, typically by someone with likeminded views.

Sacha is jealous

He was fine for 9 years with the propaganda, now he doesnt like republican ads....full of shit he is.

Sounds like he hates free speech. Scary.

He's right on the money!

Fun is a way to disguise negative emotions and negative thought process. It should not be used to disguise 'Real Suffering'....Anyways Hitler started with 'conspricay theories, which the World ignored, UNTIL the Amricans saw 'Buchenwald' themselves.

I'm sure it's Trump's fault. Because the world wasn't like this 3 years ago? 🤷‍♂️

Facebook and Twitter are allowing Trump to lie at will. It's happening and he is right.

SachaBaronCohen is my most favourite character of them all. An honest and articulate speech.

Geech, I think I’m in love with an artist. SachaBaronCohen

Lefties can't control Zuck so they do the next best thing. They hate him.

Coming from Borat.......

And his credibility is based upon what

Sacha Baron Cohen is spot on. We need to hold tech accountable for their role in heightening the war on journalism. A war that is not new but still ongoing:

Yep. DeleteFacebook BustZuckerberg

THIS is the rare view of Sacha Baron Cohen w/o a character to speak thru. This is truth.

“Alright Dave”? 😉

Greatest spy apparatus in history.

Only Sash Barron Cohen, and all liberals, should be allowed to lie to people.

Sacha Baron Cohen says Facebook would have allowed Hitler to post advertsActor and comedian criticised platforms for political advertising That's kind of crazy being their Jewish I think he's better sticking to acting like a complete oblivious bafoon, it's what we like about his talents.. borat to Ali g.. Wow! Brilliant Hypothesis... If fb was there during Second World War, Hitler wouldn't have faced that lack of communication which led to his defeat against Russia and US. Eventually he would have won against them and put entire world against the Axis forces.
