I liked this series until this most recent theme. The annoying character is drawn with stereotypic Jewish features -nose, short stature, thick glasses, hair- obvious to anybody who ever saw Nazi caricatures of Jews. Then the Obnoxious One comes out with the disgusting “you people” line which is a characteristic anti-Semitic slur. I know. It was meant to show how Hispanics are victims of prejudice. It would have worked if the Obnoxious One had been drawn as tall, white, and rednecked.
