> Black man uses heavy black slang isn't an offensive joke. They sound cool.

Sure, the old white woman using heavy black slang is where the joke comes in.

In Blindspotting (2018), a white protagonist is shown as being able to fluently speak an incomprehensibly dense version of AAVE, and it’s revealed later he has no idea what he’s saying (despite communicating effectively). I’ve never seen anyone criticize that joke.

The first time without her is funny though too

I don't get it does that make her a racist or something? She tries to help.

The joke is: their slang is so heavy its another language.

Personally make fun of zoomers all the time for this.

The joke is how incongruous it is that she speaks their language despite being very white. It only works because you expect black people to speak like black people and white people to speak like white people.
