Satire can be useful and persuasive (assuming it's satire) but it's not right for a mainstream institution to be publishing something like that with apparently no disclaimer at least on the bottom that the piece is meant to be thought-provoking in some way rather than a serious piece.
Let's ban the UN for misinformation I guess. Isn't that the thing to do?
- hansword 4y agoHey Monster, what you write isn't too logical. For 'banning the UN for misinformation' there logically needs to be misinformation. While you might not like the tone of the article, I couldn't find any claim that is demonstrably untrue.
- nradov 4y agoFacebook and Twitter have banned a lot of "misinformation" that was actually true (or at least not demonstrably untrue).
- logicalmonster 4y agoPerhaps it was a performative example of how satire works. Or maybe it was just meant to be a humorous comment. Why. So. Serious?
