I recommend checking out Literally Unbelievable for why this might be a good idea. :wink:

I worry about the future of the human race when I see people who need to be told that something is satire.

Hmmm, it can be hard to tell. Some people have some very radical and unintelligent views. It's not too hard to think that something appearing on your feed is just a poor opinion.
I think it's pretty easy to see if a post has satire, no?

It is the best thing seeing someone mistake an Onion article for a real one.

It is the worst thing getting shocked by an article and then realising later it's an Onion article.

I worry about the future of the human race when some ridiculous satire article actually sounds plausible. :frown:
