if what you're making fun of IS the stereotypes, not the race.

Tell that to my American friends if the N word comes up. Yeah, some things for some people are so wired in as associated with offence or trauma it's better to steer clear. At least in real life. Public media is weird because it's kind of to everyone and no one at the same time. I'm glad some films/etc can make fun in ways some find offensive, but I'm glad I'm not the judge of it!
