Satire doesn't need to be inaccurate. It needs to make you think about something that seems nonsensical.

The posted skit subverts the common expectation set by presenting a cure for some ailment. You'd be expecting some pill, coping strategy, or perhaps some "cleanse your body of negative energy" crystals being peddled with the promise to make you healthier, not a weapon which does quite the opposite.

The absurdity prompts you to think about it and arrive at that conclusion you did. That is the point of satire. It very often is true, but the way it packages the truth is what makes it satire.
