The Simpson's response was hilarious and perfectly acceptable. They basically gave a middle finger to the whiny PC crowd which they deserved.
How many Indian characters were on TV before #Apu? If this guy feels that @TheSimpsons misrepresent Indian culture, he should write a show that tells us how they really are. We've reached a point where doing accents is offensive. Any Scots asking remove of Grounds keeper Willie?

I would just say that Americans have been known to stereotype and typecast characters based on their country for a long time now in the name of comedy. So my dear Americans, before doing so watch how you are stereotyped in comedies from around the world and how you feel about it?
You fucking dingus, I was talking about people from other countries doing it. Before saying anything just go and watch how Americans are depicted in European films and Indian films and Chinese films. They are offensive and I'm sure you'll feel bad. Stereotypes aren't cool. Simple
Then why did address Americans and stereotypes it as if The Simpson’s only stereotyped people other than Americans?
That is why it is so important to read the comment before psoting a reply. I said that Americans stereotype and make fun of people from other countries but if they saw how it feels to be in their shoes then it won't be so funny. Meaning Americans take offense at being stereotyped
That’s why it’s so important to understand that in the simpsons the Americans literally stereotype themselves, meaning we really don’t care about being stereotyped.
That is why I said it's not offensive when you yourself make fun of yourself. I wonder if you'll say the same after watching how the world stereotypes Americans. How they make fun of Americans. And how offensive it can be.
I couldn’t care less about how people view me as a stereotype, it makes no difference to me and would have absolutely 0 impact on my life. People seem to get offended by everything these days.
I watched the documentary on this that aired on truTV. I never realized how offensive racial representations like Apu are. It’s very sad!!pic.twitter.com/PV4pnSzkQM
Sad world we are living in when people have nothing better to do than call everything racist because it hurt their feelings.
Maybe, there's more than one mark.
They gave the response it deserved
Why does everything have to be a SJW issue? If they had their way. They would ban fun.
