yeah, there's a distinction but if you're game for the troll it requires a level of meanness, or a certain lack of empathy.
Going along with the schoolboy sense of humor thing, some people are casually blasphemous because they have a serious dislike of religion, institutions, Christianity -- and then there are people who think they're being hilarious or edgy-funny if they draw an obscene picture with Jesus in it, just because it's offensive.

my younger brother goes to ucsd
it's a commuter school w/ 23,000 undergrad students - it's impossible to make generalizations about a student body that's so large and spread around san diego. it doesn't have many activities on campus or a real college culture. it doesn't even have a widespread greek system really, so 'all ucsd students are like these racist fratboys' is silly on a lot of levels. when I think ucsd student I think 'asian bioengineer who studies a lot and doesn't have a social life'

The claimed perpetrator of the event, as he certainly was of a similar, obnoxiously-titled earlier event.

Fraternity Gang Rape: Sex, Brotherhood, and Privilege on Campus
A classic. Fraternity Gang Rape is a fascinating analysis of how all-male groups such as fraternities or athletic teams may create a rape culture where behavior occurs that few individuals acting alone would perpetrate. The new introduction and afterword shed light on how this pernicious problem continues today, insightfully illuminating the complicity of society in the failure of accountability for acquaintance rape.”
that post where someone says "Dave Matthews is the soundtrack to an drunk 'ironic' frat rape" to thread!

A parent came to my child's elementary school Halloween carnival dressed as a "witch doctor" with darkened skin, afro wig, fake bad teeth, and shrunken heads. She won the award for best parent costume.

Penn State Sorority Holds Mexican-Themed Party, Proves Once Again That Mexican-Themed Parties Are a Bad Idea
...Instead of, say, a toga party, or whatever it is kids in Greek life like, the sorority went with the old Mexican fiesta theme. All the members decided to wear ponchos, sombreros and mustaches, and two women held signs, one of which read "Will Mow Lawn for Weed + Beer" and the other "I Don't Cut Grass, I Smoke It." And now the fun costume party is officially a racist costume party....

bop = party/disco held in college, kind of like a frat party but with underdeveloped chins
― caek, Saturday, 27 April 2013 11:17 (eleven years ago) link
xp to caek's infinitely more amusing response
"bop" is Oxford-ese for a college party or social event, usually organised by elected student reps and held in e.g. the college bar or common room. fancy dress themes are common bcz how else do distinguish your specially-organised night of going to the bar and drinking from what students do every other night anyway?
"Our experience is that such acts are not uncommon around the university; it is likely a product of the way students are taught to imagine other cultures - as foreign objects and topics for consumption."
I know this is prob totally obvious to many here but I hadn't seen it put quite like that before and it strikes some chords w/ my own middle-class whitey mcwhite childhood and education (though I am - ugh - nearly twice as old as a university fresher now)
