Fair enough. But it’s considerably more difficult to speak from the high ground when participating in shit that’s equally as bad- especially when it’s satire.
Because you don’t get to say that you don’t any know better, like they get to.
Satire is nowhere near equally as bad as making up a story and then claiming it's okay. At least satire doesn't claim to be truth.
Satire is the pot calling the kettle black, but for a different reason. It’s the same offense, regardless how you spin it.
Do as you feel you need to. I’m not judging, I’m simply pointing out a fact as I see it. It’s stooping- no matter how you dress it up.
