If someone's actually getting harmed or actually discriminated against then by all means, knock yourself out, but humour relies upon shock and stereotype to a large extent (An Englishman an Irishman and a Scotsman walk into a bar...) and making things 'correct' isn't funny untless you're lampooning correctness.
Let people enjoy their visuals and their jokes without being hypersensitive, that just fulfills yet another stereotype.
