      "Bring back joy, laughter and freedom." Everyone born after 1990 would have to be lobotomised.
      We could be selective about it, narrow it down to college students, feminists, anyone wearing a knitted hat, women with blue or orange hair, anyone who uses words like, "woke", "diversity" or "cultural appropriation". Anyone who shaves their head AND grows a beard (that includes men. ;-)). Anyone who says there is more than two genders and those that beamingly smile when the term "Democratic Socialism" is used in a positive way. This does need tweaking, but for now it's a good start.

There were some amazing comedians in the 70's and 80's like there are today. But far too many were offensive to minorities by today's standards and some were paedophiles.

    This sketch IS highly offensive!
    The stereotyping of the insurance salesman is well out of order. I was an insurance salesman in the 80s, and did happen to wear a pinstripe suit with tie, and a neat haircut. But that was just my way, and many of my colleagues as well. At the weekend I usually wore a cardigan instead of the jacket.
    As for his stated principle of insurance, of course we have to take large amounts of money from the client.What would the world come to if we insurers started paying money to the client. Our job is only to make the client think we will, otherwise they would never pay the premiums. The profession has worked for centuries to discover ways of getting out of giving money to the client, which just goes to show how professional us insurance industry workers are. And why we should be respected instead of being subject to these ridiculous stereotypes.

    It is a sad symptom of today's society that there's so much judgement about a brilliant piece of comedy just because it has a Jewish character in it. Just go to Finchley in London and these characters are everywhere - this is no stereotypical lampoon; just an easily identifiable character. I don't see Catholics getting all agitated about Cardinal Borgia's appearance (if you know your history, you know what he represents in the Catholic church...).

    Fella reminds me of the mid 80s. I was a messenger in London.. All our temps were Jews from Gants Hill area like him.. They were all fantastic with great sense of humour and I have fond memories of Harry Vagoda.. He was about 80 then.. still graftin.. They blended in with old school cockneys brilliantly

      You are so right as many of the Jews I know, say this is one of the funniest sketches they have seen. The Jews can always laugh at themselves, where as the Muslims would kill you for a sketch like this if it were about them. That's just how screwed things have become and why every one takes the piss out of the Muslims.

      You may find it surprising and hard to believe what I am going to tell you? But many of my Jewish clients will tell you that I am an open critic of Israel, on certain issues and I have made such remarks to them, that they learnt well from the Nazis over German Lebensraum, which they as a consequence suffered from.
      I am not my self a Jew but from Romany Gypsies ancestry and have also mentioned their reluctance to acknowledge the genocide of Romanies at the hands of the Germans, as many have the same attitude as David Irving is accused of by the Jews for political purposes.
      So you see I am aware of the Middle eastern problem, where they are every bit as racist as the worst of racists.
      The point I was making is that they can still make a joke about themselves and are to a greater degree more tolerant than the Muslims! And remember' my ancestors suffered at the hands of the Muslims during the Armenian genocide of 1915 to 1918 and the Muslims of Turkey and else where, have never been forgiven because they will not acknowledge this, nor what they did to the Gypsies during WW-2 funded and instigated by Heinrich Himmler. He used them in the occupied Balkan regions as he knew all to well what brutal and hateful pieces of shit, the Muslims really are which suited his purpose for the final solution of what were considered undesirable races.
