I'll provide the counterpoint and say satire and speech are not dangerous.
Nobody is directly hurt by it. It can be involved in a causal chain that leads to harm, but so can everything.
If you contend that speech is dangerous because it can lead to harm, then language itself is dangerous because it can lead to speech. For that matter air is dangerous, because it facilitates language.
