As a matter of fact, satire does not work. Fascists will idolize the fascists in satire, always. It feels like satire only works with people who already have an education about the dangers of fascism.
In the broken mind of a fascist, satire is actually a kind of utopia. It's how the world is supposed to be in their twisted ideals.
One day we'll have a movie that starts with a warning like:
This movie is satire. If you actually relate to and agree with the ideas presented in this film, please seek professional help.
Unfortunately it would get paid as much attention as the FBI warnings about piracy being illegal.
Poe’s Law per Wikipedia
Poe's law is an adage of Internet culture which says that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.
Adage means saying. I had to look it up.
I feel like the only satire that works is full blown, overt caricature, like the WW2 propaganda cartoons
That's.. Not satire
Oh yes my ideal woman should breastfeed a fully grown lab experiment
Its the same reason they like to play Born in the USA all the time.
