I'm not talking about the point of the song as it's intended, I'm talking about the way it's become the Anthem of Interjection into conversations about race, and the effect its pervasiveness has on the conversation.

(Though with the caveat that I'm not talking about the point of the song, I think you're being overly generous to the creators of the musical--a funny, clever musical with some good points--in your interpretation of the song's intended message.)
