The most offensive part of Lena Dunham’s “anti-Semitic” humor article is that her jokes got no laughs, critics blasted Saturday.
The 28-year-old “Girls” star’s , “Dog or Jewish Boyfriend? A Qu🍒iz,” asked readers last week to choose whether statements ref𓂃erred to her pooch or her boyfriend.
She lists off a series of would-be zingers such as, “He does♈n’t tip,” “He has hair all over his body, like most males who share his background,” and, “He comes from a culture in which mothers focus every ounce of their attention on their offspring.”
The article sparked 🐻outrage from Jewish gr𓆉oups and other critics.
“Just read Lena Dunham’s✱ article. She is one of the most vile people in every sense of the word,” political consultant Lisa Boothe fumed.
But Dunham’s biggest mist⭕ake may be that her tired jokes about stereotypes fell flat, critics said Sa💦turday.
“Lena Dunham’s real crime against the Jewish people𝓡 was not being particularly funny,” San Francisco Magazine editor Reb💞ecca Flint Marx slammed on Twitter.
“There’s n𓃲o punchline𓆉 or point,” griped Milt Shook of Denver.
On Friday, the Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish advocacy group, cal🍃led Dunham’s “stereotypes abou🍒t cheap Jews offensive.”
“The piece is particularly troubling because it evokes memories of the ‘No Jews or Dogs Allowed’ signs from our own early history in this country,” the 💦group said in a statement.
New Yorker editor David Remn♏ick fired back, saying the ADL was “howling in the wrong direction.”
“The Jewish-comic tradition is rich with the mockery o꧋f, and playing with, stereotypes. Has [The ADL] never heard Lenny Bruce o♓r Larry David or Sarah Silverman or read ‘Portnoy’s Complaint’? Lena Dunham is a comic voice working in that vein,” he said.
A rep for Dunham declined to comment.
