Celebrities Criticize TikTok for Nazi Level Rise in Antisemitism

In a recent statement, Sacha Baron Cohen, known for his role as Borat, fiercely criticized TikTok, accusing it of fostering what he believes to be the most significant anti-Semitic movement since the Nazi era. Cohen’s remarks, captured in a video of the conversation, included a direct rebuke: “Shame on you.”

He argued that TikTok has the capability to halt the spread of such harmful content but chooses not to. Cohen also drew a connection between the dissemination of hate-filled imagery and the radicalization of individuals, suggesting that exposure to such content from a young age can lead to extreme acts of violence and hatred.

His comments highlight growing concerns about the role of social media platforms in the spread of antisemitism and other forms of hate speech.
