Sacha Baron Cohen on conspiracy theories and the retreat of democracy is brilliantly done

As you can’t fail to have noticed by now, there’s a new Borat movie out and very good it is too.

The film sequel was timed to come out before the US presidential elections for obvious reasons.

This clip of Borat’s creator, Sacha Baron Cohen, talking about conspiracy theories and the ‘death of the age of reason’ has also gone viral and it’s brilliant stuff, well worth two minutes of your time.

Here are just a few of the things people were saying about it today.

2-minutes of pure gold from Sacha Baron Cohen:

As #Borat premiers today on Amazon Prime, and uncovers the filth within the GOP, I think it's important to recognize how brilliant a man Sasha Baron Cohen is:pic.twitter.com/nkN36KOh8X
