When it comes to satirical comedy, there's a very thin line dividing funny and not funny.
It's not racist to call someone slit-eye when you are Asian (with hooded eyes) but it's a big deal if a non-Asian call somebody slit-eyed.
A dyslexic joking about dyslexia is funny, but not if you are not dyslexic.
Same with the word Nigger. Only an African American can say this word without being labelled racist.
So a good comedy is making fun of yourself in front of your audience. Making fun of others is just mean.
