It’s alarming how far into the article I had to read before I knew it was satire.

We're living in a post-satire world.

The Defense Department of the United States censored a story about the bombing of Hiroshima because the name of the mission plane was the Enola Gay.

Are you really sure it is satire? After all, this is Texas they are talking about. It could actually be in the legislatures pipeline right now.
