I know of a lot of jokes we make about our minorities here, though I don't think anyone would dare to do them on TV.
Once a politician made a joke about a religious minority that played on an ancient misnomer about them swapping their wives, and soon large scales riots erupted.
Mainstream comedy here is full of stereotyping and I don't see it as a bad thing. Either everything is okay to joke about or nothing is. I don't draw lines. People are always so quick to say how offended they feel after seeing a comedian nowadays... who would have thought that the motherfucker on stage telling jokes is actually only joking?
