Yeah well I’ve been called “Apu” my whole life by white people like yourself who consider this a “non-issue” in an attempt to dehumanize me. Speak for yourself Vikram

Lol congrats on being part of the reason Indians get minimal significant representation outside of stereotypes in American pop culture. Keep it up champ

Congrats on being a whiny little weasel that has contributed to diminishing the word “Racism”. Because of softies like you who cry racism on every hardship you face people are starting to not give a shit. Good job,

Think you missed the point.. It's not about complaining for the sake of it - it's about recognizing how the media portray certain groups and evaluating it. By your logic, there would be no progress because it'd just be more examples of "crying about non-issues."

Think you missed the point. Only people on Twitter care about faux-outrage.
-
Oversimplifying the issue doesn't actually prove your point. It just means that you're not willing to participate in any meaningful discussion.

No one's saying you shouldn't be allow to enjoy it. You should be allowed to enjoy anything you want - I may not agree but it's still your right. I find issue with you choosing to shoot down discussion because you think it's unreasonable to have an opposing viewpoint.

Discuss when it makes sense. There’s no sense in their discussion as it’s simply Apu is racist and is the reason I got called names. Funny thing is they have nothing to say about the other parodied characters. Selective outrage. No time for that shit.

1) You're assuming a lot. 2) You're proving my point.

You have no point other than let’s talk about our feelings and turn everything into a race related drama. The show is a parody on everyone and everything. It’s a place where we all laugh at each other WITH each other.
