Answer 1

Wow.  That's interesting.  Will you next be told to write a parody of Middle Easten stereotypes?  That would be vouge these days.  Or will maybe Black, Asian, or Hispanic stereotypes be next?

The Germans actually spent a lot of time on their study of Jewish stereotypes during the 40s.  See where that headed.

Here in America we only tended to target the Japanese stereotype much during the 40s.  We sent a bunch of those "stereotypes" to prison camps in California....

I'm just wondering what sorta class this is for.....
