A comment on Sacha Baron Cohen Uses ADL Speech to Tear Apart Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook. Parent comment
- Kazakh people (mostly) look nothing like Borat
- It was clearly (to me, a European) set in eastern Europe
- Cohen played on our ignorance to make us believe Rumania is Kazakhstan
- Everybody he encounters thereafter is American
- Cohen uses Borat to mock stereotypical American[0] behaviour
- I am aware just how much juvenile humour there was too
[0] applies to most places, but the film is set in America
