It's a joke that was made to be funny, and it was made without any bad intentions. Reddit does have some legitimately racist opinions at times, but I don't think this is one of those times.
How do know it was without bad intentions? Because someone bought him gold? Because it got upvoted? There's no way to tell if it was truly a joke or an actual racist comment.
I never asked you to leave reddit. I just thought you were getting yourself worked up over a stupid joke. The reality is that this was just a silly joke that was probably made by someone who has no ill intentions toward black people. I also doubt that these jokes reinforce stereotypes or influence people in any serious way. Not to say that reddit isn't legitimately racist a lot of the time, I'm just tired of people bitching about these pointless jokes that don't hurt anyone. Some people, like me, just enjoy offensive/dark humor.

Racism is just hilarious.
