Of course there is no outrage that this show depicts white American working-class people as idiots….

…..anti-war protests in 2003
I remember the protests in Europe, Australia and Canada in 2003 over Bush’s planned invasion of Iraq. (My then-wife was French, the freedom-fries/French-bashing was then acute, and I was keenly following this whole issue.)
Every country which broadcast “The Simpsons,” either in English or translated ino the local language, had a huge turnout of anti-war demonstrators — because “The Simpsons” depicted white Americans as fools.
And some are, but you don’t see us whining as the minorities do.
Gigantic crowds in London (one milion), Montreal (200,000) and Rome (an incredible THREE MILLION)

Margi made the point that hopelessness gripped the western world after all this. An estimated 36 MILLION people demonstrated, yet the war went ahead anyway.
Because the big jews wanted it.
They wanted Saddam, an enemy of Israel, dead, a pro-Jew puppet regime installed, and its oil pumped out cheap to fill American gas tanks.
But except for Saddam dying, none of that happened.
