***Black and white cookies are a metaphor for racial harmony because they taste better if you keep both halves segregated/separated? If a white supremacist sent the black & white cookie tweet, there is no question it would be horribly offensive. I'm not sure it's less horrible because we don't think RR "means it."***

Right, that's sort of what I was getting out. I'm guessing that people were offended at the very fact that RR attempted to make a light (and arguably lame) "joke" about a deadly serious subject like segregation, even if they don't think he's in favor of it.
