Clearly, you do not understand satire. My use of irony and exaggeration to ridicule the left fits within the standard definition of satire.

noun: satire

the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.

Perhaps you are dense. From the urban dictionary: if dense is used as figurative (of a person), then dense means that it’s difficult to explain anything to that person because they can’t make sense of complex ideas.

I admit that my satire requires more perception than the lame efforts of Alec Baldwin in his attempts to satirize Trump on SNL. But I am aiming for a more thoughtful audience. You are not that audience. Heckle if you must, but I see no reason to accede to your demands.

Clearly, you do not understand that you're just making up fake news.

Perhaps you are dense.

Perhaps you are incompetent as a would-be satirist.

I admit that my satire requires more perception

I perceive just fine ... I perceive that your pathetic attempts to engage in satire are nothing more than fake news ... dishonest attribution of your words to others. "Fake but accurate" is FAKE.

But I am aiming for a more thoughtful audience

You have missed. Badly.
