Ahh yes Apu who is literally the hardest working person (besides Smithers)
It’s reinforcing a stereotype. Apu was an interesting character when they expanded him, but he dealt with a lot of stereotypes and had a white guy voicing a fairly stereotypical guy.
Hank Azaria (or whoever it is voicing him) is cool with it, maybe check out his perspective
Hank Azaria voices many characters and is a very talented guy. I don’t blame him for being uncomfortable voicing Apu
Apu had so many silly and offensive things towards Indians… But Apu is (As I said in my original comment) a great and wonderful character and is one of the better off characters in the show.
The only time Apu is a bad guy is when he’s selling expired meat or when he’s cheating on his wife.
The rest of the time he’s busting his arse and being so damned hard working.
Groundskeeper Willie is a drunk, hate filled, Scottish borderline serial killer… All okay it’s because he’s Scottish.
I don’t care either way, I like Apu and I like Willie but I don’t like that a 3rd rate comedian attacked Apu just to get famous and No one cares about the harmful stereotypes of Ellie… I don’t even care…
Actually I’m tired of this, I don’t care.
Exactly, none of us even know who he is.
But he felt he was important enough to create an entire documentary about Apu, crying that Apu was making Indians seem bad when Apu was crushing it.
Then if you payed attention I talked about how unhappy I was that the Simpsons let us Australians off easy.
I want to be attacked on all fronts because I’m a ridiculous human being.
“dickhead” is something you call someone you like in Australia.

What “third rate comedian” are you even talking about.
