Ironic coming from a guy whose entire career is built on racist, classist, and homophobic caricatures.

He is the finest satirist of our times. I think if you review any of his works beyond the surface you'll agree as well.
The entire purpose of his characters and his comedy is to hold up a mirror to society, and it works(ed) very well.
"Sometime my sister, she show her vazhin to my brother Bilo and say 'You will never get this you will never get it la la la la la la.' He behind his cage. He cries, he cries and everybody laughs. She goes "You never get this." But one time he break cage and he 'get this' and then we all laugh. High five!"

eyeroll yeah, real biting satire. Really makes me reflect on society's ills and totally wasn't just a thinly-veiled excuse for racist frat boys to laugh at brown muslims amidst a backdrop of endless illegal wars on muslim countries.

I'm sure he'd agree with you. Say what you want about his comedy, dude's smart.
Agreed. But if he’s turning a corner I’ll give him another chance.
