I’ve not paid any attention to the previous seasons of “American Horror Story.” Just didn’t look like they’d do it for me. But this next season… I dunno, there’s something about it…

American Horror Story: Cult Brilliantly Mocks Left-Wing Hysteria

This season begins on election night, when Ally (Sarah Paulson) becomes completely undone once Trump wins. She’s an archetypical left-winger: a married lesbian with a child, an eco-friendly Prius and oddly specific phobias that’ll make her lose control when she’s triggered. Ally becomes hysterical once the results come in, howling and bawling like a nuclear blast had already hit or Mike Pence himself was outside her door to personally break up her marriage and take away her son.

“Go to hell Huffington Post!,” she wails. “F–k you Nate Silver! How could they have been so wrong about this?!” Her partner Ivy (Alison Pill) comes in to soothe her with something called ‘Cookie Breathing’ and, no matter who you voted for, this absurd portrait of a liberal hissy fit is something South Park could not have done better.

…

This is certainly the funniest iteration yet, mostly because of the dead-on parodies of the left. Ally and Ivy are wooed by an evil nanny, Winter (Billie Lourd), who tells them she worked for the Hillary campaign and was excited that Lena Dunham engaged with her on Twitter. Billy Eichner is half of a post-millennial, super-PC couple with an untraditional lifestyle, and eventually tries to destroy Ally with accusations of white privilege and racism.
