I can't believe there are still people trying to defend blatant racism. This was not a skit, the reaching to equate this racism with anything else is just plain incorrect logic. Moreover, trying to reach back to a time when people were insensitive is ridiculous because that was then, this is now. Many movies from the 1980s have cringe-worthy comedy that make fun of ethnic and racial groups. Guess what? They won't fly today. Someone making those same jokes last year in an un-ironic manner will likely lose their job. That's why jokes about Fisher Stevens of Short Circuit in Master of None worked so well.
The Shane Gillis clip is not even a joke, they're just a racial rant that is likely funny to them, but not funny to most others, especially in today's world.
