OK Karl, it is satire.

The BabylonBee.com is satire.

This is the second time you've publicly commented on a satire article as though 
it is not satire.

It is a good lesson for me here - some people are not able to distinguish 
satire in the written form, and also fail, repeatedly, to actually read 
original articles (with dozens of BabylonBee.com articles posted, evidently 
Karl (but the individual is not the issue here) has not actually clicked on 
even one, or if he did, he  still  failed to recognise that this site is a 
satire site.

That is actually counter productive for all of us, and in a very real way 
dangerous, since then it appears that a lot of falsehoods (which are simply 
satire) are being spread and read as factual, rather than the dry satirycal 
commentary on certain of the problems in our broader Western community today.

And that, is not good.

I take my duty of care to us all, seriously.

So Karl, I hope you are now under no illusion about the many links I have 
posted to the BabylonBee.com.

As an evidently necessary precaution, from now on I shall either pre- or 
post-fix such emails with "[SATIRE]" or something similar, in an attempt to 
avoid the real damage that may arise when folks are for whatever reasons not 
able to identify satire as satire.

Karl, I hope there is a positive (or "constructive") lesson here for you, 
perhaps in relation to "believing everything your superiors say to you" - in 
this case, what you read as "true" was actually just "shit posting" with the 
intention to point out how stupid some parts of our shared reality are.  Take 
care and I hope that you will no longer be mislead by what I mistakenly thought 
was "obvious to see, must be" satire.

We are in precarious times, and, for example, Juan's no nonsense straight talk 
may well be a more functional (for everybody) approach.  We certainly do not 
need exaggerated falsehoods to be amplified, far from it!

Take care everybody, and let's look out for one another, these are challenging 
times...


(In case it's useful, the satire might highlight that her life may be at risk - 
she's in the same jail Epstein was "suicided" in.)
