MODERATORS
Either race-tinged observational jokes can be funny if good spirited (I subscribe to this view) or they should be considered poor taste 100% of the time. (That's fine too)
But this self-flogging "lol but it's ok to be racist against people that look like me because the stereotype is some bad people also look like me, so I totally deserve it based on my ancestry, right guys?" Schtick isn't good for anybody.
(Unless you literally don't face any injustice on your way to running the world, then I totally misunderstood lol.)
But the idea that you should denigrate yourself to appease others' misguided hatred of your racial "impurity" is...the exact concept we want to eradicate isn't it?
