Silly white man who doesn't understand identity politics... Historical oppressors can't be opressed! And the historically oppressed can't opress their oppressors!
It's as if someone reprogrammed our simulation with:
Racism = Privilege + Power

The reality is that it is racist for a lib and especially a white lib, to say what Apu should and should not be. They are trying to say that an accent of a region is not to be tolerated. And that an Indian man is not allowed to own his own corner store. Libs always whitewash everything and say they are trying to save them from persecution as if they can’t save themselves.

Better question, can we use his logic to replace jews who play gentiles with actual goyim?

Apu is a good example of how peoples perception changes, but not the facts. Stereotypes are funny, just don't BE a stereotype if you don't want to get made fun of. It's literally what we do in this country

Its like they think changing apu would bring back viewers or something. Most of the core audience left a decade ago
