That man is going to get an extremely brutal lesson in the difference between absolute and relative values.

In true genie fashion, the only change in their life is that now, a single occasion where a racist person decided not to hold a door open for them, changes so that they do.

Genies are all about malicious compliance.

Lol. I don't know how you managed to have the absolute worst take to this stupid comic, but congratulations.

"The only racism Black people experience is one person not holding a door." LMFAO

Genie: congratulations you are now a health insurance CEO! You will not know suffering for the rest of your days

easy is relative. all depends on how you see the world. while there is quantitative evidence for genetics to play a part in it, ease can be changed just as much by the person as by the environment.

wouldve been more effective to just make him rich

I need to watch the wishmaster series. Of all the stuff with the concept of evil genies that twist the meaning of wishes into anything BUT the intention of the wisher, it would be that. Or so I heard.

South Park video game's difficulty level is directly tied to the skin color as well.
