Openly racist against white people the entire show

Throughout the show he's constantly saying white guys have small dicks (unless they're Italian)
White kids curse in front of their parents
He uses an obnoxious nerdy voice whenever he's portraying a white guy
The whole skit is basically one casual racist remark against white people after another.

The left is up in arms about his comments on homosexuals but pretends like the things he says about white people are just fine.

Like most of the older comedians, nothing is off limits. It's funny and classic. It's not solely about making fun of white people.

The uncle of the black family setting everyone on fire at the barbeque was hilarious.

OMG, black people and barbeque! THAT'S RACIST!

Saying he has one goofy uncle setting someone on fire vs saying in general white guys have small dicks are quite different things. He spends a significant portion of the skit insulting white people. And you trying to pretend that's normal is part of the problem. If a white comedian got on stage and 50% of his skit were negativities about black people, then suddenly it would cause an uproar. But one insult after another against white people is considered fine.

i do not find his comments about white peoples racists. he does skits on going to africa to pick up african women and he make them sound like cave peoples! he just like to be offensives.

what surprise me when i re watch this is how unfunny eddie murphy is. i use to love this and raw! watch it all the time in my youths! now i think he is just poor man richard pryor! at least he funnier than chris rocks.

although i did laugh at his impression of mr t and bill cosby hahahahahahah. good skits. and his impression of his dad shouting at his moms is funny too!

This whack job is trying to pretend that he doesn't speak English very well so he makes his writing look stupid so he can continue to play this Arabian character he invented. It's really embarrassing to see.
