I think if it had been placed in America it would have been better received. People don't expect to have a serious conversation about critical reading skills in a meme community. They're used to one liners and moving on.
But placing it in America ruins the joke. The whole point is that it was absolutely nothing like that.
Well there needs to be a better way to communicate the message then because it got lost in the noise.
Maybe. I just plan to be over here in the corner weeping at the death of satire.
Lmao, if A Modest Proposal was published today we would all be breathlessly talking about those Republican cannibals.
You won't be able to save people who are unable to draw parallels between a hypothetical and a real situation, even when they are given a dozen hints.
Eh. Normally I would agree with you but these hints require a lot of known context.
