I swear reality is getting so weird that I didn't realize this was satire

I think the Biden campaign should do it.

Target certain voters on social media with perfectly normal campaign videos or news stories, but then Biden suddenly looks at the camera and says "Hello son." Target Trump voters with videos where he says they need to put a stick of celery in their chest pocket as a sign that they're faithful. Push stories about LSD leaking into the water supply. Push stories about celery, which is a sign that something big is about to happen. Have news stories where George Bush is still alive one day, then return to stories where he's dead the next day.

Double down on right wing media propaganda/disinformation and annihilate voters' grasp on reality completely.

What's the worst that could happen?

Maybe I'm out of the loop since I don't know where this celery reference is coming from but I like it a lot.

This is hilarious and I would donate to help make it happen

Sounds like I need to buy stocks in celery...

It's hard to satire reality when reality is satire.
