Method Man couldn't have said it better. It's sad how so many young people think that these stereotypes are cool and funny, but have no context to it. I think what gets lost is that there is a very fine line between satire and flat out being offensive. I guess the best example would be how Dave Chappelle explained why he decided to end his show while doing the racist pixie sketch. According to his explanation, it was how people laughed at the joke. He felt they were laughing at the act without the context, instead just laughing at the stereotype. I got what he was saying when he said it, and I feel a lot of that goes on here. People laugh at the satire but lack the context of the comedy of it. Smh.
