Well, it's kinda embarrassing to confess I found him borderline 'funny' a while ago (more like, say, Trevor Noah; John Oliver, for all his biases and blinders, is actually quite funny--neither Mr. Noah nor Mr. Böhmermann are).
The divide always was there to exploit. Lenin needed the women onboard and made feminism a subset of marxism, wresting control of it away from middle-class bourgeoise outside of Russia. From then, feminism and all its off-spring has had an internal conflict beyween the upper and middle class-background women and their (neo)liberal individualist base, and those women putting feminist in a perspective of class-struggle according Marx as conveyed by Lenin.
A obviously unsolvable but highly exploitable problem for those who understands it.
The trans-, homo- and pedophile lobbies are no different, and the grey eminences of all of them know full well when to appeal to the "individual rights and freedoms"-narrative, and when to apply class-and-race-and-the-next-thing rethoric to their message.
It doesn't - or shouldn't be allowed to - matter for anyone opposing them: the underlying message is always the same. Obey, comply and hail the voice of authority, or else.
Oh Böhmermann. "Every Second Counts" was funny, the Erdogan poem at least interesting, but now it's disgusting.
Oh Contrapoints. "Opulence" was a masterpiece, some others at least interesting, but the "witch trials" I could not watch until the end.

Also, I know, Böhmermann *eyes rolling*
