I just wonder, does saying a race in a joke automatically make it racist? This joke doesnt say anything bad about Mexicans, its merely a play on words

How how Germans does it take to also screw in a lightbulb?

Just one as well. Look, if you make a joke and if nothing was intentional, then what the fuck is the point? That's what comedy is if you don't let it get personal. Just like how some celebrates get roasted as well.

How many people does Ellen G White need to change a light bulb?
She doesn't. She just needs a few to claim the light bulb went out yesterday, as she predicted.

How many SJWs does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

One. But they just hold it in place and expect the world to revolve around them.

Whats it called when two Mexicans play basketball? Juan on Juan

I feel like by themselves neither of these jokes are racist, but when you say then one after the other.. it becomes a little more racist

Still a play on words using a name thats normally for a certain race. Would it be racist if you had a friend or 2 named Juan and told this jokes to other friends around. Probably not. Though, it could hurt Juans feelings depending on if he could take a joke or not. Though, he may be tired of all the jokes by now.

Not saying you think this, but it can be construed that you think all Mexican people are named Juan.

There isn't anything negative about it. No insult to the people, implied or otherwise. Not racist.
