Debunking Borat

This show consists of the first 40 minute episode, with nothing really new from when Borat 2 stayed with the two dudes, then six more 7 minute episodes of what seems to be a teenage boy narrating over why the two guys silly conspiracies were wrong. I mean ZERO laughs and it's just weird as heck. Skip it, trust me.

Seeing how many triggered reviews here, the show achieved their purpose.

This is satire at it best.

Watch this as it intended to be, a comedy by borat to show you otherside of the argument.

Truth hurts but don't be bitter, get motivated to be better.

In the end people dont really care what you think, they believe what they want to believe.

"Borat's American Lockdown & Debunking Borat" (2021 release; 7 episodes totaling 83 min.) is a follow-up of sorts to last year's "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm", and intends to address the many conspiracy theories that have built up the last couple of years, and which are brought forward in the movie.

"American Lockdown" (37 min.) revisits the movie's segments involving the conspiracy theorists Jim and Jerry, and adds some footage that was left out of the movie for one reason or another. The best scenes involve Borat being introduced to Amazon's Alexa, and Borat imagining that Alexa actually is alive and living in the device. There is also more detailed footage of the QAnon rally that Borat ends up addressing. We then go "Debunking Borat" (6 episodes of 7-8 min. Each), in which Jim and Jerry meet (virtually) with various experts who will debunk these crazy conspiracy theories going around about Bill Gates, George Soros, the Clintons, the "Chinese Virus", etc. It all leads up to the very last episode in which none other than Hillary Clinton herself addresses Jim and Jerry (in a taped video message).

Bottom line: I really wonder who all this is intended for. If you've seen "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm", it is because you almost certainly abhor these crazy conspiracy theories and the people that stupidly fall for them, so there is no reason to watch this. If you haven't watch "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm" but are curious, by all means watch the film before you spend any time on "American Lockdown & Debunking Borat". And if you are convinced that these conspiracy theories are "in fact" correct, I feel sorry for you (actually I don't).

Love or reject him, Borat is who he is created for. Unnecessary yet you can't take your eyes off him.

Appearing a tad sciolistic this time around, Sasha takes on America yet again and created another very watchable satire amidst the chaos of COVID to highlight some uncomfortable truths on the mentality of an average American everybody.

This century's Monty Python, playful yet heavy handed with something to offend everyone. Just watch it, have your drink and shut up.

I don't know Is it real or staged ; but if it's fake, it's done pretty well .

The absurd extremist beliefs of the hosts reflect those of a significant minority of US citicens .

And while most of them are all bark and no bite, and mentally and physically the least capable and most dependent members of society, they do pose a real danger to democracy .

At the same time , those two guys are being portrayed as likable, hospitable and quite tolerant despite supporting the most outragous lies spread im mainstream Western politics since the 1930s .

Maybe this piece is about all the core principles and common decency most people still might have in common, even when some subscibe to Qanon or Milita rethoric .

I personally don't belive that to be true, not after the damage done from Oklahoma City to January 6th by rigth wing milita cells and the individuals and groupings related to them .

But a nice effort to ask people to get along .
