I don't think the word hint means what you think it means. This was blatant.

  • Is satire not over-exaggeration, ridicule, humor, etc to expose and criticize a particular point of view?

  • Your post did not use exaggeration, humor or ridicule. It did not criticize a point of view. It repeated a point of view, and then you put #satire at the end. Your post is bait, not satire. In your version of satire, Saturday Night Live skits would just be word for word recreations of actual events and at the end the the actors would say "Just kidding!"

    Yes, your use of satire was correct. Saying the tag was a hint was not, that is a blatant attempt at telling this collection of, uh, intellectuals that you made a funny. I was just being an ass. My bad yo'.

  • No hard feelings here. I would say the community has a small population of responders that have no idea what satire is but understand when they see the tag that the person isnt serious.
