Good satire is only funny when recognized as satire, and even then only to those who support the actual position it advocates for (the opposite of the one it satirizes.) Otherwise, it trends to be offensive (for different reasons to those who are targeted vs. those who fail to recognize it.)

I often disagree with the viewpoint of an Onion article while simultaneously finding it funny. Same with comedians. I don't need to agree to appreciate a humorous approach the expression of an opinion.

I do the same at babylon bee, or at least used to. The past couple of years it has really taken a nose dive in quality.

Good satire should insult the foolish and hypocritical.
