That's all well and good, but it doesn't change the fact that the saitre is meant to make you laugh, whereas political commentary is meant to express a view.
One may do the other, but to lump them together is a grave mistake.
- sliverstorm 13y agoIt sounds like you are under the illusion that political satire has no agenda.
- diminoten 13y agoAgain, that's all well and good, but it still doesn't change the fact that the satire is meant to make you laugh, whereas political commentary is meant to express a view.
- sliverstorm 13y agosatire is meant to make you laugh ... and also to express a view. If you understand that, I don't understand how you can view satire as purely entertainment and completely a-political.
