In which case a parody ad airing during the Super Bowl just might be the most effective antidote.

...except for the fact that the ad plainly gave its endorsement to the environmental wacko movement at the end when the smiling Audi Obamamobile driver is waved through the checkpoint.

Ads that simply repeat and endorse the absurdities of reality are not parody. They are a continuation of that absurd reality.

Nope, I don’t see it. A parody does not evaporate when a “contrary” alternative is presented (in this case, a driver being waved through a checkpoint with an ANTEATER sniffing autos).

....so if you buy an Audi, you won't be subjected to the Green Police terror? Subtle, aren't they?
