Just because the Simpsons and South Park use stereotyping against groups of people just to get laughs doesn't make it right. Justifying bigotry and stereotyping by calling it comedy is what's disingenuous. You can hide behind the phoney veil of liberal tolerance all you want, but if you can justify the stereotyping on those two shows then you're a bigot.(August 23, 2012 at 7:44 am)A Theist Wrote: In New Hampshire, Biden got into character again with his best, but poorly executed India accent, and said, "You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.

I saw that clip. There is a difference between racism & and (an admittedly bad) stereotypes.
Either you actually understand that & are being disingenuous, or you would logically have to think "The Simpsons" & "South Park" are terribly racist as well, since they use stereotypes in much the same fashion.
Which one is it?
