Cult really made EVERYONE look bad in a political sense, it made the conservatives look like extrimist brain-washed monsters, and the liberals like oversensitive snowflakes getting triggered by anything.
That was what I really liked about it, actually. It was pretty even-handed with the mocking. And I think it barely had to stretch much for the stereotypes it used..... I could see parallels to my own country's politics too, so it made me think about it.
It wasn't the political season or the cult season I wanted, but after watching it again I can appreciate what they were doing with the satire. I think people might just need more time to be able to 'get' it with how the political climate is still degenerating.
