However, claims that one major chain has already agreed not to screen “Ali G: Who Iz I?” are inaccurate
People being upset by Sacha’s antics? I’ve never seen that! It’s absolutely not how he’s drummed up attention for every single other movie! We should be mad! Grrrr! Mad!
Mistaking his mocking for posers like his Ali G character with actual Rastafarians is definitely an opinion humorless people may take

You would love some of the conversations here on Lemmy where everyone in the end just accuses each other of being racist.
Ali G was created as a dim-witted white man imitating urban British hip-hop and Jamaican culture, the joke being that his deliberately offensive nature poked fun at his own ignorance and cultural appropriation in general.
Watching his interviews with Gore Vidal and Noam Chomsky was revealing. Spoiler alert: Vidal got it, Noam did not.

Sadly that was part of my thinking too.
How does Alistair Leslie Graham being a knob head make black people look bad?
By continuing to promote racist stereotypes.
And he is a loud and proud Zionist so fuckem
I, too, am upset that comedians mock things.
