The part you are leaving out is George Jeffereson ragged on white folks as much as anyone ragged on black folks. It was juxtaposition comedy and funny. Fred Sanford did the same on Sanford and Son.

Of course it was frowned upon, Archie was being mocked as a bigot, that was the whole point. That’s just the same stupid reasoning that would make Blazing Saddles, a film that made mockery of racists, impossible to make today.
You have to know when you’ve jumped the shark, and people quit taking you at all seriously, when you have to start digging so deep for stuff to be offended by that you have to go after Dr Effin Seuss.
