Thing is a lot of the articles are really just thinly-veiled opinion pieces, under the label of satire so that when somebody points out the logical fallacies or double standards, people can go "It's just satire- why are you getting so offended lol!?" Then when the push-back has ceased, they can retreat from the Motte and retreat to the Bailey of treating articles that are basically just "People we disagree with are stupid and evil and bad and we are much better people than them lol" like they're some kind of legitimate social commentary.It's just satire. I don't understand people being offended by it.
What's funny is how quickly these people change their tune if the boys take even the most gentle poke at Labor or the unions...
