I honestly don’t know how we (as in all of us) gonna solve the information cycle pollution and have a news delivery platform that people on the left and on the right of things can agree on. That a satire video can be flipped and portrayed as an honest view held by the president (as he posted it) is telling.

Hank Green over on youtube did a fun look back at history and "disruptive" technologies. He likened today's social media to the invention of the printing press. It's a pretty fun video. He calls Martin Luther a troll, which is pretty good.

I think it's this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8PndpFPL8g

Gonna take a look at that, social media certainly has been disruptive.

It's a fun take on it. I dont know if Green is correct, but it's a fun thing to think about.

Humor based on absurdism doesn't work well if you always do absurd things.

one man's satire is another man's fervent belief. Poe's law.
