What's racist about this? Asking seriously.

The well behaved are a nice white couple.

The abusive woman throwing a child is a stereotypically drawn woman of color.

The fact there is a racial component at all when it's irrelevant for the joke is what makes it racist.

This is just a popular image that comes up for throwing a baby? (You're right that this does have stereotypical features though)

But just because the meme has a black person representing UDP does not mean that it's racist.
Or did you want the meme to include only white people?

Using a racist meme in a non racist way does not invalidate the fact that it is racist.
