Assuming one thinks protesting a would-be dictator is a vice or stupid, how does a video of dropping excrement on them expose that?

You provoked me to google the definition of satire. The response it produced was “the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidity or vices…”

I’ll wager he knows damn well it’s not even remotely satire—it’s nothing but bad faith arguments with this lot.

But that emphasizes the need to call BS when one can all the more.

I suppose it would’ve been too much to ask a follow-up: “How exactly does his post satirize anything?”

This leaves me wondering what the point of asking a question in the hallway is at all then. What’s the point? To give the guy a chance to deploy a predictably canned answer?

Asking sincerely as someone who’s *not* an experienced hill reporter. Is this all just performative then? Qui bono?
