I don't think he's a racist person but how the hell did he expect people to react to that

People seem to have lost their sense of humour now that everyone is offended by everything.

Sis let's not pretend that you wouldn't be (rightfully) offended if the tweet was making fun of Jewish stereotypes.

Listen, I laugh at Jewish jokes all the time. The thing about being in a minority is to try not to take offence at everything because most of the time no insult is intended.

Fair enough! Like I said, I don't think he's a racist person, but he should have known that the tweet would cause a lot of offence to a lot of people

That's not a racist tweet, that's a racist joke. The latter are less offensive and generally do not have an underlying agenda. Of course, some racist jokes do, but I don't think that is the case here.

- It's borderline racist but I don't think he necessarily meant to be racist; I believe that he just doesn't "get it" (as he is a bit of a dinosaur... and this is fairly common).
- It isn't funny anyway, whether it's racist or not. It's a sh*t joke. And I actually think he was initially more butthurt that no one found it funny than anything else - He's been stealing like 80% of his catchphrases from TiBB-SD . |

It’s an obvious joke(even if poor).People have been making ‘close to the bone’ jokes forever.
Comedy is an important outlet for society to be able to laugh at all these taboo subjects.A release. I think a sensible head is needed when judging something as an ‘ism’ and if it has malicious intent behind it.Context is key. Let comedy live |

Anything goes in comedy. This just isn't funny, tbh it probably would've been funnier had it been more offensive
