Satire is Broken

Satire is broken, amazement abandoned

Every word spoken lowers the bar

Nothing surprises, nothing’s incredible

Anything’s poss’ble with Cheeto in charge

Good bye hyperbole, Hello hypocrisy

Post-fact apoc'lypse countdown starts now

Fake News and Rumor, Conspiracy of Ignorance
Scapegoats and straw-men, fallacies abound

Glorious fact-check, Praised Citations

Insisting that “sound-bite” answers won’t do.

Double-blind Studies, Peer-reviewed Journals

Hallmarks of Reason, dos vidaniya, adieu
