"Irony," "humor," "wit," "satire," are all beyond the cerebral capacities of the primitives.
Frank, Satire is built on actual facts, this came about over a couple hundred + years ago with the British press and the beginning of the Cartoon age. An off shoot to the Court Jesters that often lost their heads.
Satire is seeing beyond why the Emperor has no clothes, it is looking into WHY he is naked.
Dickens was a master at this, as are out Political pundendts and cartoonest today. Few people are satirised unless the public is becoming concerned about their behavior.
The liberals are not unlike their friends the Muslims that become enraged over a cartoon or speech that they feel is disrespectfull to their beliefs, their race, or their heritage.
However today anything goes with the Christian faith, few if any become upset with the defiling of Jesus and Mary.
Why is this so, the Pope has and past Popes have been satirised and the Christians just don't seem to give a damn.
Interesting subject, do you Frank or others know why any of this is so??????
