Agree, you cannot be racist towards clankers, or other corporate products.
The issue (painfully minor issue if we can call it that) is that the sketches were basically cosplaying slavery and racism, but instead of black slaves, they are clankers. it was slightly funny the first time, but that joke wore out fast and gets uncomfortable. Not calling anyone who made those sketches racist.
