What is racist jokes?

[sage1999]

I dont get it. If one says 2 an asan "u curry eater" thts true isnt it. Im not tryin 2 insult anyone since i am an asian but most asians do like curry. Racist jokes are made because of statistics. For eg experiment shows tht blondes may not be as clever as some ppl, though this is not always the case. Blondes can be pretty intelligent. Similar to coloured ppl(no offense). I know it may be insulting but think about these for a moment. The only reasn why there are so many muslim terrorist is because ppl potray them 2 be tht just cos of 9/11. And wikileas hs shown 9/11 could hv potentially been Bush plot. So i wanna hear ur opinions and what u think so i can build up a better picture of this

An ethnic joke is a humorous remark relating to an ethnic, racial or cultural group, often referring to a stereotype of the group in question for its punchline.

Ethnic jokes have been around since people first noticed they were different from one another, and ethnocentrism and a sense of ethnic identity appeared. Jokes feed upon difference and distinctions (not only ethnic, of course) and if one of the functions of ethnic jokes is to ridicule and depreciate these in-out groups, another function is to maintain and strengthen a sense of one’s identity in some in-group.

It may be that ethnic humour helps us deal with hostility verbally instead of physically, but these slurs also reinforce our stereotypes and sometimes lead to calls for violence.

Ethnic jokes are often considered to be offensive and as a form of hate speech. Perceived as such, they may sometimes be referred to as race jokes, or racist jokes.

racist jokes are jokes that make references to historical stereotypes of a certain race. For example not offending anyone....

For example since I'm Irish I can go ahead and say it >_>

Whats the difference between a Irish Wedding and an Irish Funeral
There is one Less Drunk

Or one of the more offensive ones

What do you call 2 black people on a bike
Organized Crime

yes they can reference to peoples nationalities,race, ethnic group. some maybe a funny joke reference while others can be extremely offensive. I find them funny but I never use them to offend anyone,. I might joke around with my friends

EDIT: Also, I'm blonde and I'm on my way to becoming a doctor so thats extremely inaccurate... :| like most sterotypes

Tell me why.

Because he's black.

 

[I touched Sunny]

Because he's black.

And silly me thinking it was because he was blind. Smh I am so stupid at times.

Based on my experience, black people are more effective when we are racist towards them. If we would have been nice to them, they would not have their Martin Luther King thing. xD Also, they wouldn't be able to develop their culture, if there was no slavery.
