Imported the Funny Aneurysm Moment (now merged with Harsher In Hindsight) from main recap, decided it was a better example of Values Dissonance
Added DiffLines:
* ValuesDissonance: In the original edition, two Jews can at one point be talking about the end of the world, with one of them noting that if that were the case, he wouldn't have to pay his debts. To call it stereotypical is beyond an understatement. Thankfully, this was scrubbed entirely in the revamped version.
** Mr. Bohlwinkel also comes across to many as a stereotypical caricature of Jews. Worse yet, in the original version (which was, again, written directly under Nazi occupation), he was given the very Jewish name of Blumenstein, his country of origin being the U.S. As stated above, the later version changed that to the fictional São Rico, while Hergé altered the name to Mr. Bohlwinkel... which is also a Jewish name (something that apparently he didn't know).

* OldShame: Unclear, Herge did remove at least some of the anti-Semitic elements when redrawing the book after the war (YMMV on how successful he was). He was also careful during the rest of the occupation to avoid any politics and race issues and telling only straight adventure stories suggesting he recognised he might have crossed a few lines here. However unlike ''Tintin in the Land of the Soviets'' he never disowned it and it remains fully in series canon.

No context and it's not more bizzare than other Tintin stories with fakirs, flying Tibetean monks, vaudoo magic and aliens.
