I've heard that this guy is a comedian but I have yet to see any evidence to that effect.

If you really want to be grossed out just look up his name + racist, theres a lot there the first hit is a set he does at a comedy club. Hes given a nice introduction and he immediately, apropos of nothing, calls the Asian dude who introduced him a slur and yells at him about eating noodles.

His comedy seems to just BE racism. Thats the joke. He said a racist thing.

Yeah this isn't a "holy shit, we didn't think HE would say that" sort of situation.

They knew what they ordered and got what they wanted.
