I guessed as much.

For me, Chappelle presents a commentary on anti-P.C. liberal mentality. Engineered "pop" beliefs intended to pardon historical atrocity only serve to sidevent the issue under meaningless lexicon/slang. Racial correctness seems to be Chappelle's antagonist.

Chappelle presents his subject matter in a way that displays contemporary racism as thriving and institutional, while regaling the audience with his wit. To this end, he is able to demonstrate an intuitive understanding of his subject matter in a way that appeals to many who might not otherwise have as strong an observation for present racial disharmony.
