I never make Ginger jokes. Partly this is because I'm an American, and we are almost completely unaware of the prejudice, or jokes that revolve around it. The word Ginger isn't evenly commonly known to mean a red-headed person in the states. Americans that are aware of it or mention it have gotten the term from European media or friends.
Actually I'm pretty sure it was South Park that sparked the Ginger "prejudice". But on the whole, OANST is correct. The only place it's prevalent is the internet. I've known several gingers in my life, and I'm more than certain they would just laugh if someone genuinely tried to deride them with tonsorial bigotry.

The one exception is Coppercab, who only made an entire generation of gingers look bad by turning himself into a lolcow with his butt-hurtery.
