Has anyone seen Borat? It's vulgar, SBC is a Jew turning a Muslim-majority community into a punchline about child brides and backwoods aesthetics. It's Israeli propaganda. He harps on Gypsies Roma as well, another thorn in the side.
Cancel SBC. Don't be an enabler.
I haven't seen either movie but I've seen most of the Borat TV skits.
From memory, Borat & their fictionalised Kazahkstan are rarely the punchline, the punchline is what's exposed about the brits and yanks in the ways they interact with the Borat character.
Are the movies worse?
thank you mr zenz, I will be boycotting the new borat movie as an act of solidarity
I’m sure that the guy who is politically aware and very intelligent is a Zionist. Like, for real? Just because he’s a JOO doesn’t mean he’s blinded by their outrageous actions/ideology/policy.
You are kinda calling yourself out by trying to frame this as a religious issue. Being a JOO has nothing to do with anything.
While it’s not completely free of flaws —
In 2006, Gemini Films, the Central Asian distributor of 20th Century Fox, complied with a Kazakh government request to not release the film. That year, Kazakh ambassador Erlan Idrissov, after viewing the film, called parts of the film funny and wrote that the film had "placed Kazakhstan on the map". By 2012, Kazakh Foreign Minister Yerzhan Kazykhanov attributed a great rise in tourism to his country—with visas issued rising ten times—to the film, saying "I am grateful to 'Borat' for helping attract tourists to Kazakhstan."
