It's not hypocritical for blacks and Jews to bust on themselves but still be against racism and bigotry. To mock one's own self and kind is part of most cultures. I know Italians who do it too. But outsiders who do it may or not be bigots, but it's pretty normal to presume that an outsider who is making derogatory comments about a race, religion, culture has some bigoted views and stereotypes. Problem with stereotypes - there's some truth to all of them.
There are Jewish anti-semites and Blacks who don't like other blacks. That's their opinion from their dealings with their own kind. As a Jew there are things I'm embarassed by that many Jews do. Same as some blacks are embarassed by parts of black culture.
Jews and Blacks used to get along much better. But there is a lot of resentment today towards Jews by blacks.
