Ever see something so appalling and stupid that your immediate reaction is laughter, as a defense mechanism for your sanity? That’s what just happened to me.
I do that. I think that’s a fine immediate reaction.
The problem is when you do it in public and the people think you’re on their side. Then you get looks from the other side as if you’re condoning it. Meanwhile you’re just like, “it’s an internal tick I got! I don’t approve of any of this!”

Sorry for the lack of clarity, not more baggy clothes, just baggy clothes more often.
it can be difficult in your delivery to clearly delineate that you’re making fun of the racists, racism, and other targets of bigotry. generally if you know the people you’re joking to well, it’s easier to make that delineation.

spoiler alert
it didn’t. he liked the existential art and the statues with their boob out.
he did not last long. like, if they don’t have a known You to juxtapose against, all the audience sees is Bigot. So it’s not really existential. or funny. just bigotry.
