Everybody,Georges Bataille Eroticism citation 1962 I'd like to you meet Jason Spencer.
Jason is a soon-to-be-former state representative in Georgia -- he lost the election primary in May to a newcomer, too bad so sad -- who's enjoying some last-minute infamy in office as the butt of a Sacha Baron Cohen joke. You see, it's still poor form in the USA (for now) to publicly perpetuate racist stereotypes and scream the N-word repeatedly.
SEE ALSO: Sacha Baron Cohen's new show: Is it worth watching?That's exactly what Jason did when he was duped into appearing on camera with a heavily disguised Cohen, as part of an anti-terrorism training video. I'm not going to repeat the litany of ever-escalating gaffes he commits; you can see it for yourself.
Try not to wonder how anyone could possibly be this stupid as shit keeps getting weirder and weirder. That way lies madness.
Lovely fellow, right?
Jason's behavior earned him sharp rebukes from his soon-to-be-former colleagues in the George House of Representatives.
"Representative Spencer has disgraced himself and should resign immediately," the House speaker (and a Republican), David Ralston, said in a statement. "Georgia is better than this."
Governor Nathan Deal, also a Republican, had a similarly sharp response to the Who Is America?clip in a tweet of his own.

For his part, Jason blamed the whole thing on threatening calls he and his wife had received in the past. Those calls, he said, came in 2017 after he introduced an anti-masking bill that would have effectively banned Muslim women from concealing their faces.
Public outrage eventually resulted in Jason abandoning the bill in late 2016, but he described how threatening calls the following year left him in a precarious state of mind in a series of text messages sent to The Washington Post's Steven Zeitchik.
"Sacha Baron Cohen and his associates took advantage of my paralyzing fear that my family would be attacked."

Despite the calls for his immediate resignation, Jason apparently intends to stick out his remaining five months in office. Bold strategy, Jason. Let's see if it pays off for you.
