@captainvellalives yeah. Imagine they put shit like this into a Monty Python movie. You'd probably laugh your ass off cause this is so ridiculous and.. excuse the word, but it is so fucking stupid.
And here we are. I a world where this is reality and people stopped using the organ between their ears.
@captainvellalives and meanwhile in Germany people are doing comedy about pretty brutal stuff, people who suffered violence and so on, label it as satire and feel intelligent.
They once heard that Kurt Tucholsky, an ardent leftist, said "What is satire allowed to do? Everything!" and then they stopped thinking. Because reading the entire text (which isn't very long) is beyond them. They just hear those two sentences, think "Oh if I label the awful shit I'm saying as satire I am allowed to do anything" and then they go on.
@enbypirate Oh god the folks that think satire is a license to unleash all their hate and prejudice on the world will absolutely bury us. Satire is a tool to hold those in power to account, to mock establishments that require respect to function as a way to bring them to heel. Using it as an excuse to unleash hatred is fucked...
@captainvellalives absolutely. This is why there can't be a right wing satire.
@enbypirate Babe I'm Australian. I hear worse language getting petrol :Blobhaj_Heart_Trans:
