On being crazy
Meaning of the title and of the last two lines
The reader quickly recognizes that something is wrong with the story. Not knowing that black people are discrimina­ted, the protagonis­t does not fit into this society and he misunderst­ands his fellow men. Additional­ly the title suggests that someone in the story is crazy. The other people treat the protagonis­t like he is stupid and so the reader subconscio­usly accepts that there is something wrong with the main character, because he does not know the idea of racism.
The last two lines reveal that this opinion does not have to be the right one. The end makes clear that there is a second possibilit­y: Maybe not the men's philosophy of life is „crazy“, but the one of all the white people in the story. Why should it be normal to start out from the fact that there is racism in our world? Is it not a crazy idea to discrimina­te black people?
The not racist reader catches himself having prejudice, because he has started out from the idea that the protagonis­t is the crazy person in this story.
Furthermor­e the last line is a smile. It exposes that racist white people do not improve their situation by being racists. They think that equal treatment would harm them. Trying not to change their situation, they stay „in the mud“ (line 50).

On being crazy
Meaning of the title and of the last two lines
The reader quickly recognizes that something is wrong with the story. Not knowing that black people are discrimina­ted, the protagonis­t does not fit into this society and he misunderst­ands its (if you mean fellow men of the society) fellow men. Additional­ly the title suggests that someone in the story is crazy. The other people treat the protagonis­t stupid and so the reader subconscio­usly accepts that there is something wrong with the main character, because he does not know the idea of racism.
The last two lines reveal that this opinion does not have to be the right one. The end makes clear that there is a second possibilit­y: Maybe not the men's philosophy of life is „crazy“, but the one of all the white people in the story. Why should it be normal to start out from the fact that there is racism in our world? Is it not a crazy idea to discrimina­te black people?
The non-racist reader catches himself having prejudice, because he has started out from the idea that the protagonis­t is the crazy person in this story.
Furthermor­e the last line is a simile (I don't know the text but I guess you meant this stylistic device). It exposes that racist white people do not improve their situation by being racists. They think that equal treatment would harm them. Trying not to change their situation, they stay „in the mud“ (line 50).
