Ah yes, racist humor for liberals from the 2000s. Color me surprised that this piece of shit felt that it was finally time to bring this garbage back.

Cohen seems to have anticipated the backlash. When he posted the trailer on X, he wrote: “In an age where a comedian’s career can be ended by a single un-PC joke, I thought I’d play it safe and bring this guy back.”

Though even that sentiment feels about five years out of date — a single un-PC joke doesn’t exactly end careers anymore, as several edge-lord comedians like Dave Chappelle can attest.

tfw the racist parody character is more likely to oppose the ongoing genocide of Palestinians than the actor playing the character

zionist piece of shit can fuck off and die

I see no difference between this behaviour and boomer musicians who can't make anything new anymore. Washed up so they just go back to their old material and redo that for the people that haven't moved on.

Dude was never even that funny to begin with. He is a relic of 90s/early 00s "DAE racism is funny" humor. Tired old garbage.

Oh come on guy you jumped the shark already back on borat, wa wa wee wa mai waif!

I'm not gonna lie and say nothing this guy did was ever amusing to me (OK, mainly the wrestling sequence in Bruno) but he's been a risible hack for many years and trying to ban the movie is giving him way too much attention (AKA, what he wants).

A minstrel show is fine as long as it's a Zionist targeting Muslims. Honestly this guy is a fucking hack and op

My newer co-worker is excited for this. He is also willing to do an accent when quoting apu from the Simpsons and when mentioning he worked at his last job with one of our servers twin sibling used he and then said 'I guess I mean she, they're trans.' So I dunno if that was correcting to properly gender or misgender. I dunno he used all three main pronouns in one sentence, no matter what its not a good look.
