Do you know, my humor is so dark, its chained up in the basement begging for food
That sounds weird. Is this a reference to people of color?
I'm black. It's meant to be satire so I can speak freely, because that's what we need right now.
Even though you yourself are black, this kind of humor can still be very painful to people whose ancestors had to live as slaves. While we need free thinking and sharing of ideas, jokes like this will only drive people away, while simultaneously encouraging real racists to make similar remarks. Neither of those things are helpful to anyone.
I agree, I shouldn't have said that. I'm sorry to everyone who was offended by this.
I'm glad you seem to have come around. Making jokes at your own expense might seem harmless but ultimately it ends up encouraging others around you to do so as well. Some might feel emboldened or feel like you're validating their feelings.
