I think the technical term for what you've just read is banter.

noun

the playful and friendly exchange of teasing remarks: there was much good natured banter

verb

exchange remarks in a good humoured teasing way: the men bantered with the waitress

I'm afraid it used to be like that, back in the sixties, before PC and taking grave exception to everything became the norm, so please, cut us some slack, leave us alone and go and get yourself ready for the next Jeremy Corbin rally.
