It’s not even a joke, as far as I can tell they’re referring to the only nonwhite character who looks like a racist caricature but it’s actually such an outdated caricature that it didn’t register for me at first.
Neil : “Ah, here’s one. This means that someone has just done something which has never been done before. ‘Richard Moore of Sugarland, Texas, hollowed out an eggplant and filled it with hot sauce and nickels.’ And amazingly, it’s not a weird sex thing. 99% of all new human behaviors are weird sex things. But not in this-- oh, no, it is a weird sex thing, yeah.”
It’s clearly sexual from the context of the meme. Pretty much any time this happens, it’s sexual in nature. Otherwise it would just be confusing rather than presented as humorous.
If that were entirely true, a “power bottom” would make no sense.
The terms sexual usage originated in gay circles where it only delineates who penetrates and who gets penetrated. Traditional views on sex ascribe a submissive or passive role to the bottom and an active or dominating role to the top, but you can totally have a power bottom who takes control and an active role in the intercourse but is the one getting penetrated.
Of course, it’s comics so it could just as easily be another Riverdale canon they’re colliding with that just looks like the show and is exactly like it except the couple things they changed…
There’s like five different characters in marvel comics from different “the real world” universes that are all just ‘our world except so-and-so comes from there’. And that’s a tame example of that kind of thing.
So yeah, it could certainly be a “crossover without ever actually crossing over” like with marvel vs DC or whatever
