    Before, satire was easy. You could just make a message internally inconsistent and people would eventually realize “this can’t be a real person’s avowed opinion, because it doesn’t make any fucking sense.”

    And then Death took on subcontractors to expand its market to communication.

    Cue the idiots: i.e., influencers.

        As a communist tankie, nobody should be living, for I am a monster hell-bent only on the destruction of Western civilization. I love American.
