My hubby does not understand sarcasm unless explained to him and then he doesn’t understand the purpose. He often says, is this sarcasm.

You are so lucky grame! You can call him a moron....and say “but I mean that in a good way”, and he’ll take it as a compliment. Unlike my wife when I say that to her, she just punches me in the nuts and says it’s a show of physical affection. Man you women are weird!

Yep. This is an actual thing.

I'm not disrespecting them - it's not their fault.

I get sarcasm & satire.
Alas, so much of modern news is so much more bizarre than any attempt to satirize it, making most satire indistinguishable from reality.
Babylon Bee is the only effective satire site remaining, and even that is getting hard to maintain.
