the skewering doesn't seem intended to bridge racial and cultrual divides

Ummm... he's a COMEDIAN!!! WHY THE HELL SHOULD IT BE BRIDGING DIVIDES??? IT SHOULD be making folks laugh, he's a comedian not a social activist. What a flipping buffoon.

Exactly.
Comedy isn’t supposed to “heal”.
It’s supposed to drive a wedge into a festering wound and induce uncomfortable laughter. The kind where you put your hand over your mouth and look around for a black person.

Seriously.
If you don’t cringe a little, it’s not that funny.
