Grow up. You keep posting stupid crap that’s not even funny. It’s just fake news, in world that’s already awash in fake news.

. He is one of the best satirists on FR.

Well, there you go. The "best satirist on FR" is a pathetic hack.

Satire is Dead. Find something else to do.

Perhaps he could learn Indian music ... then he could be a sitarist. The world needs a few good sitarists.

Satire is intended for thinking people. Obviously, you are not the proper audience for it.

You may intend it for thinking people, but you have missed the mark. You’re not even on the paper.

Try sitar instead.

Hey, it is not just me. Look at this satire site shut down, because reality eliminates the need for satire for the libs

"“Because there is no point in operating a caricature website of Feminism anymore when real life Feminists are now more insane than any caricature we could ever dream up,” the publisher continued."

This is the point. It used to be funny. But the libs went over the edge. Nothing you can satirize is substantially different from the reality of the left.

I won’t dispute that point at all. However, you still need someone to caricature it in order to show its absurdity. It needs contrast, otherwise it is just a picture of the norm (no matter how absurd the norm may be).
