Social media is melting down about this Babylon Bee article
Vivek responded and is not offended, which is good because no one should be.

It’s comedy, you are the only one offended
Not to mention you could interpret it at them making fun of Trump and implying that HE is racist

Are they making fun of Vivek or making fun of Biden being openly racist?
They pulled off the hat trick…yes to your two points and they also tapped into the “racist Trump” stereotype.

And the whole time I thought it was a site of satire.

I’m Indian and I think it’s funny

If not for the Bee reference, I would have assumed that trump said exactly that, before also noting that Vivek's wife "had a bean bag of an arse" and that "Vivek's daughter was Downsy"

Reminds me of the Lisa Lampanelli joke, "not a casino indian, a slurpee indian"

I didn't find it funny. Not offended by it either. BB usually kills it.
Can't always be funny.

He did a live interview the other day. He was supposed to do it from his office or something but was running late so he pulled over and did it from a convenience store in the background.
He made the joke first. He said something like, "Let me address the elephant in the room first..." It was pretty funny.
So, he isn't even offended by this stereotype.

I legit lol’ed at the headline and picture. It is funny, but probably in bad taste, which is why it’s so funny to me
This.
I mean, if you take out Ramaswamey and insert a black candidate and change the job to "picking the White House cotton," it's not difficult to predict a meltdown over that.
But yeah. I laughed.

I’m not outraged or anything but it doesn’t really sit right with me. I’m not easily offended and think comedy should be wide open in terms of content as long as it’s not personal.
