Satire posts should require a disclaimer, IMO. Without a “satire” disclaimer these gotcha posts detract from breaking and trending topics.

I agree. The world is so crazy now that it is easy to believe and spread this stuff before you realize it is BS.

The “disclaimer” should be the filter located between your ears. Slemmons is a genius, but sadly his satire hurts because it is way too close to the truth. He is holding up to ridicule the policies and absurdities of this administration. Be a little more discerning and enjoy this without a “disclaimer.”

You pinged the powers!
I’m just like you, a FReeper. FWIW, I agree.
I spotted the *semi-satire* but some will still take it as factual.
