    Come on, that’s just a cartoon nose. It’s not even close to the racist stereotype of Jewish noses.

    The Jewish nose, or the Jew’s nose, is an antisemitic ethnic stereotype referring to a hooked nose with a convex nasal bridge and a downward turn of the tip of the nose

      I didn’t think today I’d be looking at people arguing a Jew depicted with twice the size nose as the other character in the panel while speaking in broken English was going to be argued as not stereotypical because it isn’t hooked enough.

      Certainly didn’t think I’d see it as the upvoted opinion.

      Not at all like classic stereotypes or anything:

        Uhhh it’s a pretty huge difference. Nobody says Jews have long pointy noses like that.

        Go look at his other comics. You’ll find he’s drawn noses way more similar to the stereotype on brown people speaking arabic
