Is this joke racist!

How many American tourists does it take to change a light bulb?

Fifteen. Five to figure out how much the bulb costs in the local currency, four to
comment on "how funny-looking" local lightbulbs are, three to hire a local person to change the bulb, two to take pictures, and one to buy postcards in case the pictures don't come out.

Because Indian can refer to them little red people , which is a race.

Indian is both. You see. Of course you do, Whirly, you are just playing. And it is entertaining.

True.

Well, I believe he meant Aryans are a special race. Not necessarily only Germans.

But most of Europe were "Germans" at the time.

By being called that I assume. Or do you mean Germans as the Romans would have used it?

Also, not everyone was German. There were these disgusting Roma und Sinthi. I hate gypsies.
