The keywords are "jokes" and "comedy". When someone tells a joke, they aren't being serious; they are trying to make their audience laugh. If a racist tells a racist joke because they think it is an accurate portrayal, they are very wrong. If some tells the same joke because, fuck it, it's a funny joke about stereotypes, I have no problem with it.
