    How is gender and race at all relevant for this joke?

    The story itself isn’t a joke. The linkedin salesman guy wrote a stupid story about an unrealistically obnoxious rich guy who trips over his own racism.

    How is that picture appropriate for a professional networking site?

    Maybe he’s targeting people who look like that. The [guy who is rude to my target demographic] is quietly pwned by [my target demographic] (Now they will buy my product).

    Also, what did the dude google to find that picture?

    Ask him? His name is on the image.

      The story is a joke. Literally. The version I herd decades ago was a guy keeps buying for everybody but the Jew at a table who ends up owning the bar.
