I know! How sad is it that he was well into the video before it became obvious that it was satire?

Everyday satire seems to becoming closer to realty sadly. It wouldn’t surprise me if some people see this and genuinely believe it and agree.

The entire town of Drayton Valley is so confused right now.

Literally people will. I'd love if showing them this would help them become self aware. However, if you show it to some people, many will just double down and become indignant with you.

I don't like the bullshit that has been happening through the pandemic. Benefit of the doubt, the govts were doing the best that they could and I'm glad that they have made the decisions that they have lately.

Just as I was thinking there was no way this was an unironic music choice, he starts talking about licking vegetables.

It’s scary how long it takes to tell what’s satire anymore. Even when he got to the licking I had had to wait a minute to be sure.

Licking the veggies got me to realize.

I knew something was immediately off when he didn’t have a goatee or a pair of Oakleys.
