Good point. I was in Texas, training a new hire for my company a couple years ago and he tried this tactic. He made a racist joke and then looked over at me while laughing. I said, "I don't get it". He looked at me confused. I said, "no seriously, can you explain to me why that was funny". He actually attempted to try and explain and I said, "yeah, I'm not racist". He got very quiet and I shifted the conversation back to a professional topic.
We worked together the rest of the week and it was fine. He just knew not to go down that road. I doubt I changed his thinking but I bet I changed his perception of how universal his thinking was.
