As a person in neither Georgia nor Georgia (nor the US at all), I agree that it seems like an easy mistake to make.
But for anyone in Georgia or a neighboring state, it seems like something that should be pretty well known. Especially if you work in marketing.
I’d normally expect these kinds of ads to be produced by the local party branch but this suggests that either the local Georgians don’t know there’s another Georgia, or the ads came straight out of the national HQ or Moscow.
Even disregarding the orientation, people hate auto-next on YouTube, but will tolerate/accept endless scroll for shorts, especially because they’re short.
