Hey! Easy on Slow Joe. Yeah, he’s a racist, yeah he and his family are corrupt as all get out, but he promises to do more push-ups to prove his manhood...

What about this guy? He’s a stereotype if I’ve ever seen one.

And get rid of this guy, too.

Oh, wait. I forgot that it’s okay to make fun of white men. Never mind.

I can’t even tell you the last time they even had the character speak on the show...

Stupid...

A good character killed by stupidity

Yes, let’s crush the ugly stereotype that Indian immigrants tend to embrace America’s entrepreneurial spirit and thrive in capitalism. In case Mr. Azaria hasn’t noticed, Simpsons characters are frozen in time. They don’t really evolve. You know, like neither Bart nor Lisa have grown up? And Maggie has been a baby for 32 years now? Hello?

There are a thousand people who could do Apu’s voice and 99% of viewers wouldn’t even notice. But instead, the show will likely either cave or delete his character.

Black actors voice white characters and no one complains.

Either apply the libtardity equally or eliminate it. They have to live it or it better damn well be dropped.

Now let Bart be voiced by a male voiceover actor.

Or are we just targeting white male actors today?

The character Bobby on King of the Hill is was voiced by Pamela Adlon.

When can we be expecting an apology from her on this travesty?

So they get rid of a minority character that accurately represents many minorities.

You should hear the goofy American accented character they mock in India ...

I have no idea who does those voice overs.
I’ve never watched a full episode of The Simpsons to this day. I’m sort of out of the loop.

But he has zero problem with Cletus the Slack Based Yokel.

That’s a pretty offensive stereotype too.

Maybe he should get shot by some inner city “teens” if you want to make a statement.

Actually Apu is one of the smarter residents of Springfield.

I just go to the Mighty T Mart in my neighborhood to buy lottery tickets. Apu double and his wife run the place. I know they are illegal as hell, but I leave them alone. They work in the store 20 hours a day.

So “step aside” and let someone else do his voice.

I'm not Indian, but I play one at my "torture the telemarketer" job.
