The trans person in the story is often humiliated and belittled. A mental ill person s2e15. The Word crazy and insane is used to describe a sex addict and people going to shrinks.

In S2E14 a person takes medication for having a break down/ addiction and i described crazy off medication. And is mention that they had commited a murder before by Arson. In S2E15 they want this person to Get emitted to a «nuthouse» and is told that the person need to be a dangers to others. The Word nut and crazy is describing the person. And the doctor describe her as a Borderline personality. She tries killing someone in fire out of jealousy, but regrets this decision and joins to put out fire.
There is a lot of negative talk about bodies throughout the series, calling themselves fat when they are very thin, lots of talk about eating disorders, and Betty is often made fun of for her body (and she is not as large as they make her out to be)
Alot of transfobia and often gay stereotypes. Its Also can be a bit mocking towards mexican people or Low class people, the Rich people often makes fun of poor and find their culture wierd. Most of this changes through they Get to know them. Also maybe offensive to black or Asian people sometimes, i am unsure its stereotyping. Its a comedy so it can be hurtful for some , since There Are many jokes. Then again it makes fun of white people as Well, so it not onesided. S2E14-15 they talk abit offensive towards a mentally ill person who is Borderline personality and is a pyromaniac and had murder someone. Sex addict is called insane and seeing a shrink is stigmatized.
Spoilers!!
