Plot Bunny Farm

What they've done with Howard is the centuries-old stereotype of the money-grubbing Jew who preys on the blonde Gentile girl both sexually and financially. It straight-up is. It's really blatant. Maybe that sounds extreme, but it's a very specific stereotype and they're hitting all the notes.

Of course, they're also portraying him as henpecked and powerless, moreso as the seasons roll on, so that's a different variation, but this is straight-up the "Jew-as-parasite, feeding off others" thing. This occurred to me all of a sudden, and I can't believe no one has called them on it. I don't typically go looking for things to be offended by, but this is really shameless.

ETA: I know I've gotten really off-topic here in the Plot Bunny thread, so I'll move this if asked.
