Cohen advocates for literal government censorship of social media platforms, saying, "Instead of letting the Silicon Six decide the fate of the world, let our elected representatives, voted for by the people, of every democracy in the world, have at least some say."https://twitter.com/SachaBaronCohen/status/1197610636773072899 …

Cohen argues that social media posts should be treated more like a writer submitting an article to an editor for approval, to allow time for thorough censorship.pic.twitter.com/oemmLvcYsZ

Cohen is in alignment with most Hollywood activism: well-intentioned but entirely power-serving. The echo chambers these wealthy celebrities all wind up in gives them dumb beliefs like the status quo is great and must be protected at all cost, even literal government censorship.

That’s the point. This has nothing to do with stopping racism.

"Racism" is as imprecise and elastic a charge as the infamous Article 58 of the 1936 Criminal Code of the USSR. "Give us the man, we'll make the case," was the slogan of NKVD interrogators.

Umm, but Zuckerberg has authorized FB to remove many alternative viewpoints but still allows voices of racism & holocaust denial. Fscebook already censors much, but as it is, he determines what is acceptable, instead of subjecting it to a publicly accountable forum?

What kind of frigging artist is Cohen if he supports censorship? A bought 1% sycophant. Censorship is not the answer. Tulsi isn't kicking her opponents out of debates, she is towering over them by being right. We don't need censorship. We need spines to stand up to bullies.
