Borat's American Lockdown (2021 TV Special)

Sacha Baren Cohen has become the very thing he is mocking
20 January 2022
Mind you the two men he is living with are shooting off a irrational amount of inconclusive rants. But, I feel that Sacha Baron Cohen has gone just as far as these guys, only in the opposing direction by just mocking them.

It used to be really funny when he would mock politicians and people in power on the Ali G show and such. Now, he is clearly targeting a specific archetype of people. We get it. They are not his type or Hollywood, or the media.

I think it would have been funnier if he had poked fun at the political powers on both sides. I find it amateur that he is going after 2 men that were kind enough to invite him into their house during a pandemic.

I used to love his Cohen's content. He used to just be unbiased. No sides taken. Just poking fun at the ridiculousness of politics. Now, he just mocking one side of the spectrum. Which now, is definitely needed on both sides.

Sure, these guys are on what is known as the "far-right". But, they were polite and kind to him entire visit and to take an immigrant in to their home as a guest and treated him with respect and dignity.

I really lose respect for these guys that lose their ways and start disrespecting the little people and mock them. Just because their views dont align with your own. Yes, they are a little "off" with some of their conspiracies. But, at the end of the day...even people with opposing views put you where you are.
