“YTA. Heckling sucks, especially when it is some young startup comedian. What you have described is not enough to know if it was actually a racist joke. Acknowledging communication issues due to accents is not racist. It is also possible, and not uncommon in standup, for comedians to touch on racial stereotypes in ways that makes themselves the butt of the joke and not the racial group. Those jokes take careful balancing and tend to go throw a bunch of variations before they are firmly good. I’m sure your date’s friend is a young comedian still workshopping her jokes and her voice. If a comedian tells a joke that doesn’t land, they can make note of that and use the info to improve their set. But when they get heckled, it can kill the crowd and any hope of actually moving on from a bad joke. Add to that that you were sitting by her friend and she may have not even felt like she could have clapped back at you for your heckling in the way she might with a rando in the crowd.”
