![It’s Watters, It’s His World, and It’s Not Racist. So Stop Already. [VIDEOS]](https://victorygirlsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/iu-2.jpeg)
Everyone, find your safe space! Here comes Jesse Watters, of “Watters’ World,” and it’s raaaacissst!
So says Esquire writer Luke O’Neil, who has all the appearance of a liberal hipster (ooh, can I say that?). He cites a recent video of the Fox News feature guy Jesse Watters visiting New York City’s Chinatown as proof.
Lectured O’Neil, probably fueling his indignation with an overpriced latté: “You might think that the least Republicans could do would be to refrain from reducing them to the most obvious, hackneyed group of decades-old stereotypes, but Orientalism is a hell of a drug, man.”
Yeah, man. Hell of a drug. So is the power trip O’Neil gets from being a scold. And now New York City mayor Bill de Blasio has demanded that Watters be removed from the airwaves.
The vile, racist behavior of Fox’s Jesse Watters in Chinatown has no place in our city. @FoxNews – keep this guy off TV.

Interestingly, Watters also came under fire from a writer at the conservative Federalist. Not only did writer Rich Cromwell criticize Watters for being a raaaacist, he also labeled him a “jackass” for the Chinatown video. For good measure he added a video of Watters supposedly insulting Italians, too.
I have no idea if Watters is an actual, bona fide racist. However, I think his humor is a throwback to an earlier time when people laughed over ethnic humor without getting their knickers in a twist. (That’s “knickers,” as in ‘trousers.’ You’re welcome.)
Allow me to indulge in a story.
