Before, satire was easy. You could just make a message internally inconsistent and people would eventually realize "this can't be a real person's avowed opinion, because it doesn't make any fucking sense."

And then Death took on subcontractors to expand its market to communication.

Cue the idiots: i.e., influencers.

Ragebaiting is good for engagement and shareholder value. Or are you some kind of communist tankie that is against folk making an honest living???
