On: Google rejects White House request to pull Mohamma...

If you think Team America was made specifically to insult a culture then you may have missed the point of it.

It has subtleties: a lot of the things that seem blatantly insulting are actually poking fun in the opposite direction.

So did the people that Team America superficially appeared to make fun of refrain from violence because they picked up on the subtly of the movie?

I think that gives those people too little credit. I think they would have refrained from physical violence even if such subtly was absent.
