Yesterday was the 10th anniversary of the Charlie Hebdo shooting. What is your opinion on the freedom of satire in general and the satire of religion in particular? (jlai.lu)

This cover

This is a satire of right wing politics (which Charlie notably opposed) claiming that poor people make more babies to get more social welfare, with denounciation of islamist organization Boko Haram using women as sex slaves, both mixed to create absurd comedy.
Explain what you find racist about this.

Not sure what it says, but as Charlie Hebdo makes fun of everyone, and usually for a good reason, what is the problem?

I was curious too:

Boko Haram sex slaves angry

Do not touch our allowances!
