13249529, misfortune/struggle as a source of humor isn't the issue.

I don't think the rule is you can't make fun of people. I think the issue is, is it really funny just because they are different?

Or maybe it's just kind of lazy. I think you can make some funny jokes about a group but if your go to joke about an Indian person is they were at a convenience store then that's just kind of lazy.

Maybe the way simpson could address it is if it turns out that Apu has saved up a shit ton of money and buys out Ed Burns from the nuclear plant.
