Im so glad she has no idea what Mexicans or latinos are. We would have gotten “Jose frijoles” a Mexican wizard with a moustache and hat who throws a spanish word into every sentence.
There’s no “shouldn’t have” here. We can laugh at these things. This was a joke about how badly JKR writes foreigners, not a joke about the race it depicts.
There are good and bad jokes about racial stereotypes. Are we making fun of Mexicans or are we making fun of racist peoples’ stereotypes about Mexicans? I’d argue this joke was the latter.
If she wrote a South East Asian she probably would name it Coolieboy Sambal. Who is an errand boy of one of teachers who tries to tame the boy and make him less “savage”

I don’t know if I’m laughing art JKR’s racism or at that funny racist sketch.
It’s ok to laugh at satire of racists 👍
Ok I know I shouldnt have, but that did make me chuckle.
