I am beginning to like and admire this Maz Jobrani comedian from Iran and I think both him and Omid Djalili truly represented and presented the good comedy from their original country mixed in with the Western comedy... Mastering English language is probably the key to successes for these comedians...

He's amazing and I love how he talks about all kind of racism and not just Iran..... I'm Iranian and I never get why people get offended being called brown or Arab or whatever .... We're all amazing people to me and I'm sure it won't make a difference for racist people whether I'm from Iran or Iraq or India....

When I was living & working in China, I went to a trade show & a group of Iranian men came by to take photos with me - I'm white, female & was 28 at the time. They kept telling me how much they loved the US. The only thing I'll say is that when I okayed taking pics, I didn't realize I'd be spending the next 30-40 min taking pics with guy 1, then guy 2, then guy 1& 2, etc.

Now this is 5 years ago and now there is a sitcom about an American Muslim guy and his family, 'Ramy'. since 2019. But there is a British sitcom called 'Citizen Khan' about a Pakistani Muslim family in Birmingham that has been broadcast on BBC1 since 2012. I highly recommend it to those who are interested and who have BBC cable television. It is in British English but it should not be a problem. Then I have to recommend a British film from 2010 with Riz Ahmed among others and is one of my favorite comedies, 'Four Lions' about...not so very smart...guys who are wannabe terrorists. There is no place to tell more about the film here but watch it. Black humor and a bit tragic but very funny!

What he talks about is right, there is a lot of generalization. Americans please get your turban knowledge right. Being a non-Sikh Indian, I should tell you that Sikhs have played the part of protectors and laid down their lives doing it when this region was under Arab invasion. Their religion brings them up to protect the weak/innocent like women and children, terrorism is cowardice and very wrong to them... if anything you should feel safe around a Sikh. Know that it is perceptions that are being sold as truth on TV many a times. Lastly, terrorism is a global issue, we in India have been on the receiving end for a long time - Terrorism is the last form of Tyrannical Barbarianism leftover from a passing age, it piggybacks itself on religion)... trust me, ISIS and Sikhs are entirely and completely different.

+MahaVakyas My man, barbarianism exists everywhere, globally, across religions and sects. School shootings is Barbaric as well, rape is barbaric as well, heck trying to control others which is a very accepted form of governance is by itself becoming Barbaric as Internet and Science break barriers of segregation. Hypothetically, if there was a strong alien invasion, would you still judge religions, sects and border separations? I'm a Hindu, trust me, the biggest enemy that we face today is ... 'Insecurity' its a threat because it is devolving our people. Hindus have to grow from that and reach an area where we start joining the philosophy with science for global development and service. Instead we tend to get disturbed and insecure about our religion thinking that one day no Hindus will be left in the world etc... For 1000 years this region has been under religious pressure my man and still we thrive. Have faith... the way forward is through peaceful brilliance or winning peoples hearts, not by angrily or destructively proving something that in actuality has no positive effect upon others or on our own religion.

+Vykier Why would you hold onto a faith that still has a caste system?
@advythoh
@advythoh 8 жыл бұрын
+Mike Lins 1) To improve the faith and abolish the caste system by not practicing it. 2) This is the only faith that allows me to study/worship other religions/faiths as well (multi-religious). 3) If you lose faith so easily on something, it only pronounces that fact about one's character, no? So to give up on something without making the effort of fully understand its origins and derivations is not my style.
@advythoh
@advythoh 8 жыл бұрын
Mike Lins +MahaVakyas Relax guys, it demeans us all to fight over religion. Fact of the matter is that no religion is perfect, its a system created by humans, gods don't practice religion and humans are imperfect beings. So name-calling is an endless thing that proves absolutely nothing, do we really need to bring ourselves down like this? Almost every religion fundamentally preaches compassion, understanding and service to others... without practicing those primary attributes a Hindu isn't a hindu, a christian isnt a christian and a muslim isnt a muslim as well... something which priests, fathers and imams all forget to remind us of. Let me ask you this question, if there was an immediate global catastrophe that just needed all of us to come together to live through, would you still behave this way? Or say hypothetically, a Hindu were to save a christian from an accident... or a muslim were to save a Hindu life, or a christian gave up his life to protect many others... this is the reason we need to update and patch our respective religions towards humanity so as to be operable in a more integrated way in today's global lifestyle. Fighting over religion is getting out of fashion really fast, these comments will stay on the internet to represent you forever, one day your children will goad you for your ignorance and being part of the problem and not part of the solution. Therefore, please, stop this mindless fighting over religious differences and learn to love one another celebrating our commonalities instead. The world is lesser than a spec of particle dust in the universe. Why are we dividing that further, are we that small minded?

He seems to have a prejudice against religious people, Muslim, Christian or any other - and it is true, we all try to become acceptable and to fit in with those who you look up to. I know many good religious people as well as many who are not. Good or bad has nothing to do with being religious or non-religious, it has more to do with you being either predominantly giving or taking. I like people who are giving across the many divides.

I'm a know-it-all so i just can't help to say this. Maybe 'race' has a different meaning in the US but I feel uncomfortable when the word 'race' is used. Nowadays we say 'ethnicity' ... at least in Europe. The word 'race' has had devastating consequences in Europe for centuries, and in the United States too I believe. Secondly, there are no human races. DNA has shown that all of humanity is far too closely related ... from Norwegians to Nigerians ... so the word 'race' can't be used in this context. To say 'race' is considered racist here. This is not a PC thing but an important thing when you see how the word is used and has been used by ignorant and evil movements.

You are right. We are from the same race: mankind But you can't erase this word and the meaning it has taken to it self over the years unfortunately. Cause people from specific ethnicities don't see others as humans or at least humans worthy of existence. It still exists undeniably and very much tbh.

Jobrani preached about uniting and living together, and he kept poking fun about FOX News and GOP, while left the leftist media alone. Is he really sincere about what he was talking about, or just being a talking propaganda for the left? I first lend him my support until realizing his biased thinking.
