Humor about race or gender in the post-Trump era is typically about expressing racism or anti-trans sentiments as a means of virtue signaling they are MAGA. The racism is the joke. The transphobia is the joke.

And if you don't get it. You're not part of the MAGA movement (and therefore, according to them, an NPC).

I appreciate a lot of race or gender humor this decade. It just takes some genuine inside knowledge to pull off and that's not what edgelords are about. Their humor is for reducing complexity and making people alien.
