I get that, I've just found Americans online like to inject race into everything regardless of where they are on the political spectrum
It's almost like race is a foundational conversation to the USA, a colonial nation.
I'm Canadian so same here but we don't try to label things "white thing" or "POC thing" because that's weird
Or you have no sense of humor, you are supposed to celebrate differences. Not mash them down and hide them like a shameful secret
The humour is based on saying that how someone acts is derived from the colour of their skin
edit: is it not?
edit 2: obviously Canada has a huge racism problem too, especially in regards to indigenous peoples but generally progressive people don't make jokes like this because it's honestly sort of racist
