Cohen is a hypocrite for advocating 'against free speech' IMO. He's pushed the boundaries of it in most of his comedy & now decides to play favourites. Makes me wonder what the payoff was for his award from ADL.

yeah i agree. it's not only hypocritical it's very out of place. he's clearly not so stupid that's he's just oblivious to the fact that everything he's done is based on libreal attitudes to what is allowed to be said, so then what is it? does he suddenly see himself as the saviour of jews or something? and if so, why?

The guy's high on his own farts. There's no denying his loyalty though, he recently starred as a Mossad terrorist in a Netflix drama & was raised orthodox, converted his wife in order to marry her & his mother's side are Israelis.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacha_Baron_Cohen#Israel_and_Judaism

wtf? freedom of speech is absolutely freedom of reach. if the only place you're allowed to speak is where nobody can hear you, then you have no freedom of speech.
