I really don't think there is anything more effective at subversion than humor. Laughing people grant the comedian elevated privileges over their beliefs. (This is a sincere take.)

I agree, but I think it can be subversive in a negative way as well. Humor is a dopamine back-door for getting someone in a suggestable state to consider a new idea - even if that's Dave Chapelle doing shitty stuff like telling trans people to "wait your turn" for rights
