I know this is from the Babylon Bee, but here's the thing - this is literally true.

The Bee occasionally (like here) produces 2-layer satire: A piece that (as you say) is literally true, but which is told in a satirical style. It's like satire that satirizes itself, wraps around on itself, and ends up "straight".

Forgiveness requires repentance. When the mob was shouting “crucify him, crucify him”, Jesus said “forgive them Lord, for they know not what they do”. But He knew many of them would repent because they were merely ignorant, having heard the Pharisee call Jesus a blasphemer and a heretic when none of that was true. Is the same true of these Leftists who celebrate the death of innocent people for believing in God and speaking their belief? I don’t think so.

Many a true word spoken in jest.
