You can see how forced the actors' laughter is. That's the sort of laugh you make when you witness someone say something horribly tasteless, but try not to draw attention to it and make it worse.
Enough already with slinging the “racist this and the racist that” around … so inappropriately. You might dispute his characterization. You might consider it completely inaccurate, or a gross exaggeration. Fair enough. But it’s not “racist” in any sense of the correct use of the description. And what does this comment say about someone who, after seeing the entire content and point of this marvelous vid … chooses to single out this awkward attempt at humor by the MC and make no mention of the nobles drama truly humanitarian mission that these men have embarked upon and committed themselves to. My guess is that he was referring to the recent Greek Economic Catastrophe … which is no joking matter. From Wikipedia: Greek government-debt crisis Greece faced a sovereign debt crisis in the aftermath of the financial crisis of 2007-08. Widely known in the country as The Crisis (Greek: Η Κρίση), it reached the populace as a series of sudden reforms and austerity measures that led to impoverishment and loss of income and property, as well as a small-scale humanitarian crisis.[6][7] In all, the Greek economy suffered the longest recession of any advanced mixed economy to date. As a result, the Greek political system has been upended, social exclusion increased, and hundreds of thousands of well-educated Greeks have left the country.[

Great performance
Sad that the moderator is so insufferable. I can't get past him. Great topic.
I'm utterly horrified by the racist comment about Modern Greeks that comes from the white man on the right at 8:50.

It was xenophobic, not racist. I agree that it was a bad move, though.
