https://www.mediaite.com/media/the-young-turks-cenk-uygur-banned-from-entering-united-kingdom/The Young Turks’ chief pundit Cenk Uygur was barred from entering the United Kingdom over government concerns his presence would not be “conducive to the public good,” The Times reported on Sunday.Uygur was set to appear at the SXSW London festival later this week. But British Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood decided the leftist commentator was not fit to enter the country, due in part to his rants against Israel.The Times reported:> The decision to block Uygur from travelling to the UK is understood to have been based on several grounds, including fears that his presence would risk exacerbating antisemitism due to his rhetoric since the October 7 attacks in 2023.> This has included repeating classic antisemitic tropes, such as the claim that Israel controls America. He falsely claimed on his podcast in July last year that the Israeli lobby gave more to Congress than any other.Uygur confirmed he was banned from entering the UK in an X post on Sunday. He said it was for “criticizing Israel.”“Are we free anymore?” he continued. “This is oppression of Western citizens by our own governments on behalf of a different country!”
His nephew, popular streamer and former TYT commentator Hasan Piker, said he was banned from entering the UK as well during a livestream on Sunday.“I didn’t want to talk about it, but uh, my visa has also been revoked,” Piker said. “We just found out… I don’t know who to reach-out for this.”Piker has made headlines for a number of claims over the years, including saying America “deserved” to be attacked on September 11.He has also called Hamas “the lesser of two evils” when comparing the terrorist organization and Israel. And last month during an appearance on Pod Save America, Piker branded the Republican Party the “biggest domestic terrorist” organization and the “biggest terrorist internationally.”

>>1517605Not really that surprising considering the UK basically invented the modern state of Israel.
>>1517600What a shame. I feel so sorry for that animal abusing piece of shit. Guess he's stuck in this racist country that doesn't arrest people for criticizing Israel. Isn't the 1st amendment just horrible?
>>1517600>"This is oppression of Western citizens by our own governments on behalf of a different country!" - brown foreigner>Brown>Western citizen>OUR governmentSo we're just saying shit now.
>>1517631Literally no one cares if they're brown except chuds.
>>1517631the whole thing is just an excuse for the esl shill to post about their favorite twitch streamer
>>1517634The chuds always win though, anon. We are undefeated and everybody knows it. That is why you can’t stop talking about them.
>>1517673When did Chuds ever not lose?
>>1517600>“Are we free anymore?” he continued. “This is oppression of Western citizens by our own governments on behalf of a different country!”LMAO you can't make this shit up.
>>1517673You're 'winning' right now and it's the most disastrous shit any of us have ever seen in our lifetimes.
>>1517673>Winning is paying $5/gal for gas and not being able to afford anything while Trump agrees to pay $300B to the people he claimed to beat
>>1517685I have never heard him say anything antisemitic. I must be uninformed, surely he has many antisemitic utterances on the public record. The British would never make things up or commit any kind of perfidious act surely not.
>>1517689Even if they did make it up, you have to appreciate the irony of someone who talks shit about the western world for a living, and then cries about how oppressed they are when one of those western nations doesn't want them in their country.
>>1517690Imagine cheering for countries that bar you from entering for criticizing Israel
>>1517691>You're such a racist, nazi, hitler, fascist, white supremacist->Okay get out of my house. You're banned.>WHA- YOU CAN'T DO THAT!!!
>>1517692They banned him for saying bad things about Israel, and that’s when he (rightly) started calling the British government a bunch of fascists being over for Israel
>>1517693It's not fascism to ban people for being an asshole. You're not entitled... I know this is a really mind-blowing concept, but let me emphasize this as best as I can... you're not entitled access to every Western nation on the planet. Just because leftists support mass-migration and letting in millions of people who hate Western nations, doesn't make it a rule that you can go wherever you want.
>>1517693Did you cry fascism when all the Tommy Robinson supporters got banned from entering the country for their anti-Islam views? Did Cenk?
>>1517694Throwing out freedom of speech on behalf on another country is unacceptable and fascist behavior
>>1517698>Throwing out freedom of speechThat thing that britbongistan never had? Again, were you this outraged when those racist white supremacists were getting banned, jailed, deported, etc. for their anti-Islam speech? Or is it (D)ifferent when it happens to you?
>>1517699>racist white supremacists were getting banned, jailed, deportedI hate seeing this happen, because it implies that racist white supremacists weren't already getting the shit kicked out of them.
>>1517700they seem to just do it to themselves these days
>>1517700Of course you can't answer the question. Which further demonstrates the hypocrisy of people like you and Cenk.
>>1517710isn't it funny how you're the snowflakes now
>>1517711>nowlets not pretend they haven't always been the snowflakes
>>1517690The irony is that Israel needs to be protected from western values.
>>1517696Anti-Islam is against freedom of religion which is a thing in Britain. Cenk wasn’t being against freedom of religion for criticising a foreign government. Cenk isn’t a racist either, and fwiw I prefer racists and any kind of anti-religious nutjobs not be allowed into my country.So no you can’t equate criticism of a government with anti-religion sentiments.
>>1517699They do have a free press in the UK. This argument that there’s no free speech in the UK is a bit silly, really.
>>1517715>So no you can’t equate criticism of a government with anti-religion sentiments.No I can and I will. Cenk had no fucking problem, and neither did you, with people on the right getting banned. Now Cenk wants to cry about it when his leftist ass gets banned when he built his entire career off of shit-talking every Western nation. It was all cool until it happened to him. And the bitch of it all is he still has a platform to keep whining about it because the country he lives in, that he hates, allows him to do so.
>>1517716>This argument that there’s no free speech in the UK is a bit silly, really.Tommy Robinson?
>>1517720>Robinson has a history of criminal convictions,[5] including for crimes such as assault,[6] threats,[7] harassment,[8] and fraud,[5] as well as contempt of court rulings relating to his videos, and has served five prison terms between 2005 and 2025.
>>1517721>We have freedom of speech in the UK>except for that guy. He doesn't count.You don't have free speech.
>>1517722Maybe he shouldn't have assaulted or defrauded people.
>>1517727Maybe you don't have free speech. >tfw even criminals in America are allowed to have an opinion without going to jail over it
>>1517733Crimes compound other crimes. Sorry you don't get it.
>>1517734Sorry you don't get free speech. And you bongs never will. >This argument that there’s no free speech in the UK is a bit silly, really.>spends the entire thread justifying removing free speech from Tomlol fucking eurocucks.
>>1517737>poor Saint Tommy dindu nuffin>he a good boi>he didn't mean to instigate a riot and physically assault people>but Cenk is the devil for saying jews did genocidekek
>>1517748>>but Cenk is the devil for saying jews did genocide>shit I didn't sayYou know you're losing when you have to strawman.
>strawmanheh, not man need straw as tampon for their lady bleeding! HURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
>>1517716Neither of them actually care about free speech and have called for the censorship of rightwingers for years.
>>1517754>Neither of them actually care about free speechthats just your opinion>called for the censorship of rightwingers for yearswhats the problem with this again?
>>1517600UK is already at end stage progressivism I see.It's just a matter of time at this point..
>>1517756>It's only okay when WE do it!
>>1517688Gas is down like $.50 since yesterday.Using this angle is going to be like complaining about egg prices in a week or two.It's amazing when the actual adults are in charge and they don't create multi year disasters with their dumb policy mistakes.
>>1517756>whats the problem with this again?Free speech is a universal principle. Hasan is doing the commie thing of just wanting to oppress other people. The Young Turks is the name of a genocidal regime by the way.
>>1517767>Free speech is a universal principle.Bongland doesn't have the first amendmentPedophilia will remain censored in America regardlessYou'll rage about both of these facts in perpetuity
>>1517768>Bongland doesn't have the first amendmentYou're retarded. Free speech isn't just a legal concept. A society cannot be democratic if the people living within it cannot speak freely.
>>1517769>democracys are only real if they're faaaaaair>communism hasn't been properly implemented yet
>>1517769>A society cannot be democratic if the people living within it cannot speak freely.Which bongistan doesn't allow.
>>1517770>I don't know what the point of a democracy is please rape my face
>>1517770>>1517772It's more funny since he'll make any excuse for how inherently corrupt capitalism is proving horseshoe is real.Also the bongs proving the Labour party is just as right wing as the Tories.
>/news/chuds don't know they're extremist minorities and shunned by normal society
>>1517600terrorist supporter, human right violator, infidel, enjoyer of brothels using trafficked women, dog abuser, nepobaby.man the list goes on and on, its funny how he has an audience of actual incels like those disgusting male feminist sex pest types
>>1517715He's a racist to me, so what does your opinion matter bigot?yes and that's why racists like him hasan and you should be exiled from the motherland forever.
>>1517688oil contracts are down 15% from its 2nd peak around 2 weeks ago. i get you just want to whine but how do you think its reasonable complaining about oil prices going up for 2 months, but ignoring the bidenflation?
>>1517787really weird strawman you have going there
>>1517719You really can’t equate criticism of a government with anti-religious sentiments, or to put it another way; attacking freedom of religion is not comparable to criticism of a government.
>>1517786I don’t see any evidence that or reason to believe he is a racist. Screeching that he is to you isn’t proof, it just means you’re possibly not a sane person.I think I know why they blocked him, I think it’s because they worry that him speaking against Israel will potentially incite antisemitic attacks, it’s nothing he did it’s just they’re trying to protect the children from hearing anything bad about anyone and misinterpreting it
>>1517794ahh yes because he's not racist to you he's not racist at all real egotistical there, infidel, he amplifies the worst parts of the extreme left movement which they all agree with just politics you don't want the goddamn moron broadcasting your tactics. at least now they can pretend to crack down on extreme leftists beliefs while actually supporting them.
>>1517795Racism is defined in real terms. It’s an objective terminology. If you believe something which is objectively untrue you should question your perception of reality
>>1517797americans have been using racism to define hitler despite him being antisemitic, jews aren't a separate race. you're a retard who only uses conventionally accepted definitions when it applies to you then going "ummm actually TECHNICALLY", you're a retard a cretin and you should get euthanized farewell.By any and all definitions Hasan piker is a racist just like YOU
>>1517798You’re saying by conventional definitions, the ones you’re accusing me of using, he isn’t racist. And then you’re saying he is racist by all definitions, including the conventional definition. Do you not see the incongruous nature of your thoughts?
>>1517792Or to put it another way; talking shit about religion and government is legal in the USA, unlike bongistan. Because the redcoats don't have free speech.
>>1517800> talking shit about religionNot the same as an attack on freedom of religion. That is to say that criticism of a religion is not the same as declaring your intention to prohibit a religion. The former is free speech, which is allowed, whereas the latter is going against the fundamental right to freedom of religion, which is not allowed.It’s an obvious and clear distinction.
>>1517801>Not the same as an attack on freedom of religion.Attacking with words. Also known as speech.
>>1517802There are limits to freedom of speech. You’d know them if you knew what you’re talking about, but you don’t. Espousing an intention to dismantle the guaranteed right of freedom of religion is not a matter of free speech, it is a direct expression of intent to destroy long agreed upon and accepted principles of civilization. Anyway, I can’t help you further, if you don’t want to understand things as they are that’s a personal choice.
>>1517600>leftists falling victim to their own censorshipLMAO! Maybe you should have listened to us
>>1517813>usWho?
>>1517813>Ieftists are stupid, because they think we don't have total freedom of speech. That's why I am allowed to scream "fire" in a crowded theater, and suffer no consequences if someone dies. That's why I'm allowed to make up and disseminate outlandish, embarrassing lies about my competitors business practices and not get sued.>I mean FOR FUCKS SAKE, I can even write disparaging things about my stupid faggot president as a journalist and not be threatened with retaliation and/or prison like a literal fascist. Colbert doesn't even exist. >This is definitely solid argumentative ground for me to stand on. Every conservative accusation totally isn't projection. Holy shit I'm fucking retard.You vocally support whatever restrictions on free speech the old pedo who's balls you suck demands, but won't even condemn hate speech. That's because you're a shitty person and a massive hypocrite.
>>1517815Leftists have literally killed people in the streets for wearing MAGA hats and voting for DJT. Hasan himself called for that to happen.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRDKPpgy1T0Fuck you.
>>1517804>There are limits to freedom of speech.lol then you don't have free speech, retard. If you can't simultaneously say that the UK government sucks dicks and Jews own the world, without legal repercussions, then you don't live in a nation with free speech. The end. >Anyway, I can’t help you further, if you don’t want to understand things as they are that’s a personal choice.Talk about projecting.
>>1517815>You vocally support whatever restrictions on free speech the old pedo who's balls you suck demands,Source?> but won't even condemn hate speech. Define hate speech (and thank Christ we don't have anti-hate speech laws in America).
>>1517815>That's why I am allowed to scream "fire" in a crowded theater,Oh boy, this argument again!
>>1517824>Leftists have literally killed people in the streets for wearing MAGA hats and voting for DJTWhats the problem with this again?
>>1517825There are always limits to free speech, anon. The classic example of screaming "Fire!" in a movie theater comes to mind. If there is no fire, you will likely be thrown out of the theater and possibly arrested. Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences.
>>1517830>There are always limits to free speech, anon. The classic example of screaming "Fire!" in a movie theater comes to mind.Yeah and you're a fucking retard who doesn't even know the context of that meme. Go look up Brandenburg v. Ohio and then hang yourself.
>>1517830>Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences.Now this looks familiar. Hmmmm, where have I seen this before? Let me think... Oh, yes, I remember! >>1516639
>>1517829Fascism is historically a response to communists acting like violent dickheads. Because fascists know that communists won't stop hurting them unless compelled to do so through sheer, unmitigated force.
>>1517831But that case doesn't have anything to do with what we're talking aboutProbably because you're an esl shill
>>1517834>the esl shill bot doesn't realize that the case does have something to do with the conversationlmao
>>1517833>Fascism is historically a response by retarded conservative chuds being tricked into believing that imaginary communists are acting like violent dickheads. Because fascists are easily tricked, violent morons who love propping up grifters and scammers. fixed that for you, chuddie
>>1517836>imaginary communistsMussolini rose up to combat a communist revolution.Hitler rose up after the bolshevik revolution at the end of WWIOswald Mosley founded the British Union of Fascists to combat communism.Pinochet started throwing communists out of helicopters after they tried to take over the navy.
>>1517838Looks like you were born 100 years too late to fight gommunism.
>>1517680We’ve been undisputed and undefeated and unbeaten ever since people started using that term to talk negatively about people.
>>1517688The chuds still remain undefeated, regardless. They never lose.
>>1517813Agreed. Censorship never stops at the things you dislike if no major pushback against censorship is taken. FAFO, THE CHUDS WIN AGAIN.
>>1517836Sorry but the chuds still win infinity to zero.
>>1517825>publicly say the UK sucks dicks>complain when you’re not allowed entryIt’s got nothing to do with free speech in that case.
>>1517864>>complain when you’re not allowed entryThat would be Cenk's hypocritical ass, not me. You couldn't pay me to visit bongistan.
