I've known lots of Indians and that's how they talk.
Hank is gutless, by stopping he gives these people victory.

This is sickeningly liberal.

Lol imagine seeing a movie about a minor character in a cartoon being offensive and thinking "wow, I'd like to see that movie".

So rather than take on the caste system, he takes on Apu. Typical sjw who wants to feel good about themselves rather than really make a change.
Willie, Azaria ain’t no scot either.

It’s always been that way. For whatever reason, comedic actors have been called comedians forever. I don’t get it either.
I never even knew it was Hank Azaria voicing Apu. Since he’s quitting, why don’t they just get an actual Indian guy? I mean East Indian, of course. But it would be even funnier if they got a Native American.

Apu is a small business owner and family man, but it's problematic because a guy from India has an Indian accent. lol

Imagine how the 1.4 billion Indian people who have Indian accents must feel about being told that they need to shut up because every time they talk they're racist against themselves.

Well, depends. In modern stuff no problem, but when they put black/asian/others in european historical material blending in the population it's just stupid, immersion breaking and borderline propaganda tbh.

I can't think of any shows that have done that, TBH. I'm sure some exist and that is stupid. However, Hollywood has a long history of casting white people in non white roles.

It's also got a fookin' Vampire in it though, so......
Edit: Agree that it is stupid, but I'd be more rustled if it was supposed to be based on a true story.
