It's getting more difficult to write satire

Dana Mathewson

Those among you who are fans of The Onion can, I'm sure, relate to me when I say that for some years now it has often been difficult to read some of their articles and distinguish them from "real news." Such is the pretty pass the Left has gotten us to.

Now it's getting that way with the great satire site, the Babylon Bee. I just encountered one there titled "Liberals Clarify They Only Want Black Voices To Be Heard When They're Saying Liberal Things." Hey, we've known that to be true for some time now.

After some confusion was expressed by casual observers of apparent hypocrisy in their denunciation of Dave Chappelle's most recent comedy special, liberals from around the country clarified that they only want black voices to be heard when those voices are saying liberal-approved things.
The offended white progressives asked black comedian Dave Chappelle to "keep it down" and "maybe not talk so much" after his comments made them feel uncomfortable, sources confirmed Thursday.

Yep! Please go here https://babylonbee.com/news/liberals-clarify-they-only-want-black-voices-heard-when-theyre-saying-liberal-things to read the examples. It's a short article. While you're there, take a look around.

1 Babylon Bee is hilarious. And Snopes and other leftist "fact check" outfits keep trying to fact check them as if they are a mainstream conservative news site. That is truly hysterical!

2 Goes to show you two things. The Left has no sense of humor, and Satire is truly intellectual (which goes way over the heads of the Left).
