What is and isn't considered a joke is ultimately arbitrary, so I don't know why this point keeps being made. Are you suggesting YouTube should be obligated to platform and monetize racism?

Sounds very clear cut when you put it that way, except that reality is not that simple. I think its a racist joke, but I don't think its racism, because I don't know if it represents an actual prejudicial stance. I can make a make a murder joke without being a murderer.

Of course blatant violence and racism are one thing, but to place arbitrary restrictions on comedy is wrong. A truly tolerant society is where anyone can joke about anything without risking offense. Class based censorship only further engenders the divides between social groups.
