Obviously, when you make a racist joke, you're making fun of the ridiculous nature of racism and racists, and not making fun of people of different races themselves.
It seems like an exaggeration, but for some people it's actually true, so it's poking fun at a serious social issue that's otherwise difficult to talk about it directly.
I mean, look at all the conversation spurred on here, now, just from a single joke!
Furthermore, since race is a social construct, and not really real, I.E. doesn't exist, race only exists in the mind. Thus, race doesn't exist, and we have nothing to worry about, except people who do think it exists and act on it.
You've got to be able to take a long hard look at the satirical nature of jokes regarding racism and get to the root of their deeper meaning, understanding why it's okay to laugh, rather than laughing at the expense of others who don't deserve it.
Now, to be fair, Jews aren't a race, they're a religion, and I only hate those zionist jews, in charge of all of the world's media and establishments and banks who are just secretly conniving to make Israel look good, compared to the actual terrorists who mass murder random innocent people; they're the real heroes. Hamas, Fatah, Iran ftw!
Also, I think you're all just jelly that you didn't think of it first.
Every time White Christmas comes on, you'll be like "No blacks or gays or <insert group here> or jews..." and won't be able to not think of it as a racist song.
