    • @kinkajuu1

      Well they did handle it, by making racism as a concept absurd and nonsensical.
      Example, the grandmother is racist and Lois tries to get their black friends to act as black stereotypes to spook her away. But none of them were the stereotypes and as such their attempts at acting that way were seen as forced. That is extremely well handled by reversing the narrative of using racism as more than an undesirable trait, but a physical weakness to a seemingly invulnerable and evil woman.
      Implying that it was a good thing for the main characters that she was racist. In order to empower the characters enough by giving them kryptonite.

    Man, heisenberg yelling at someone that isnt jesse, saul or skyler is really strange. Especially instead of it being about drugs, its about poker and being a working stiff

      Seeing Malcolm's dad cooking meth and becoming a complete psychopath in the proces, was also really strange.

    There’s nothing racist about this. The joke isn’t “Haha, he said something racist”, it’s “Haha, he said something that SOUNDS racist and then awkwardly tried to explain himself”.

    This gets funnier once you realize he’s the same guy who plays Uncle Ruckus in _The Boondocks._
