Maybe he was trying to impress the AX Committee?

“About the AX Committee
The Asian Excellence Awards Committee is an elite group from a wide range of industries, including the arts and entertainment community, the business community, and prominent figures, who epitomize and have been instrumental in raising the profile and awareness of Asians in the arts and across the industries of film, TV, sports, theater, live performance and popular culture.
Each member of this peer group has achieved positions of leadership in the U.S. and the world in a broad range of professions. With their diverse backgrounds, members collectively pool their strengths and experience to highlight the achievements and talents of Asian Americans.”
Wow - AX! A new interpretation.
I read the McBeef play, and my only reaction was “this is CREATIVE writing?” He didn’t develop any of his characters, provided no reason for the sudden anger and attacks or the premise of the plot. It was as if he included everything he had heard on the news recently without thinking through a context, there also seemed to be deep Catholic hatred. My initial thought was 8th grade (that’s about the age when guys are obsessed with all the stuff he included in there) but maybe you’re right, it is fifth grade. A lot of gross stuff appeared to be there just for the sake of being able to say it.
Like "Son of Sam" was trying to impress his imaginary dog?
