That’s just straight up racist.
Like in Borat it worked because it was more about a country bumpkin and he did the fucked up shit to get a reaction from real people so he kinda needed to be from a “real” country. Or at least that’s what I thought. I thought part of the joke was that americans would believe that that is how people from Kazakhstan behave. This makes it clear that it’s just what he thinks of them.
Don’t get me wrong, it was racist then too, but “it was a different time” + it was at least funny. “King in the castle, king in the castle” is a good bit.
This is just hacky. And it’s removed from the context of being in a movie where nobody else is in on the joke.
Of course what would one expect from a man who fucked over a Romanian village like that. Bastard.
