It is not racist: Here is the Wikipedia explanation: In the folklore and legends of the Netherlands. Zwarte Piet (meaning Black Pete) is a companion of Saint Nicholas whose yearly feast in the Netherlands is (usually on the evening of) 5 December (Sinterklaas-avond, that is St. Nicolas Eve) and 6 December in Flanders, when they distribute presents to all good children.
Zwarte Piet has counterparts in the folklore of other western cultures: these companions of Saint Nicholas are known by many names, among them: Rumpelklas, Buzebergt and Hans Muff; they also include the Elves aiding Santa Claus, a modern American composite of the Saint Nicholas and Father Christmas.
The character of Zwarte Piet appears only in the weeks before Saint Nicholas's feast, first when the saint is welcomed with a parade as he arrives in the country (in the Netherlands by steam boat, from Spain), and is mainly targeted at children, who come to meet the saint as he visits stores, schools etc. He is sometimes associated with Knecht Ruprecht, but in the Low Countries the tradition has not merged with Christmas.

Uh, I get the Zwarte Piet thing (I actually already knew about it before I read the posts, but what about the slanty-eyed stereotype in the bottom right?

Same old stereotype = not cool + racist.
