It was to highlight the ridiculousness of how some people are/were in this country. Like i say, you laugh at them, not with them. That sketch in particular was to point out the ridiculousness of racist people in this country.
It's all about intention, but I think to be on the safe side ... people will just avoid doing it completely now. It is odd though that alot of these sketches & characters were only done between 2005- 2010 roughly ,as it seems that was an entirely different time.

We went from people not caring to now everything being offensive.

Like I said , Kayvan Novak should have been called out aswell,as he portrayed different ethnicities ,but it's obvious he got a pass .
