I have to ask why is this an issue now ? What has changed ? Apu’s character first appeared in February 1990, and has been a regular on the Simpsons for hundreds of episodes. There are stereotypes everywhere on the Simpsons, Fat Tony & his gang, Luigi Risotto (the pizza guy), Julio (the hairdresser), Willie, Cleetus,…

From what I’ve heard, losing two engines on a big four engine plane like the 747 or an Airbus 380 may not work.

She that friend who’s obviously not fat, who goes around telling people that she’s so fat, and then she wants to hear people tell her she’s beautiful and thin.

Normally, I’d say you’re right, but the risk of losing a job, or being labeled racist or culturally insensitive, unfortunately, will make some folks shy away from getting involved.

The problem occurs when people misread or misinterpret the signs, and then get in trouble for trying to help. Situations like the following may cause people to shy away from getting involved.

Chew an entire pack of any gum that contains aspartame (with phenylalanine) one stick at a time until each stick loses it’s flavor. You’ll be pooping in no time.

The two best are clearly Bald Move, and Boars, Gore and Swords

I think the symbolism is incorrect. She should be standing down a bear and not the bull. This appears that she is impeding the bull market, which would be a bad thing.

Site still has two trackers on it.

Fing (and similar apps) for iOS no longer shows MAC addresses since iOS 11.

How do you figure you can’t criticize them back ? I’m just saying maybe it’s wiser to keep your employer out of it, IF it in no way involves them (and I’m not referring to this particular case, I think the lady was a fool)

LOL, I think from the context, it meant the news channel

Sorry, I don’t follow what you mean.

“A government official can’t pressure a private company to fire you.”

Any news source in the US is suspect, I get my news from the BBC

Thank you for a civil and well thought out reply, unlike many of the others commenters who resort to ad hominem attacks.

I wasn’t speaking of this particular case, clearly she’s an idiot, who needs to be punished, it was just an issue that this case made me think of, that is the fact that employers are delving deeper into personal matters that occur outside of their environment.

Sorry to hear that, how exactly does the testing results work ?

Absolutely not . Things that are done in a work setting is a completely different matter. I’m just saying corporations deciding what you may or may not say in your personal life is a very dangerous game.

No, I fully understand what it means currently, what I’m questioning is, perhaps financial ramifications of “free speech” could produce a horrible effect in the wrong hands. For example, say you work for a defense company, and let’s pretend it’s vying for a big government contract, say you happened to say something…
