Right, I understand the exchange. I'm asking you, what part of that headline fits the definition of satire? You keep claiming that it's satire, but like 75% of what you're posting is just bluntly/clickbaity worded news, not satire.
The part where it never actually happened.
Also, if you only read the title, then you don’t get to have an opinion.
Did you read each line of the article?
I mean, it did though. They effectively said that. The article is a little satire-y, but barely.
Also, I'm a human out of your control, so fuck you, I get to have any opinion I want.
I never said you couldn’t have that opinion, but I do not value it and I don’t think anyone else should value it either.
Anyway, this is getting boring and I have a lot of stuff to do so I’m just gonna block this account as well and get on with life. I hope you have a wonderful time!!
Good luck with putting your head in the sand every time someone questions you on why you're calling your shit satire!
