See, I don't understand something. It is satire but it also is just genuinely what Americans believe. Is that because Americans are too illiterate to process satire, or is it because America is so devoid of morality that participating in a self-deprecational circlejerk of "satire" provides American libs and chuds with the moral license to keep supporting atrocities?

I think the same underlying phenomenon applies to the way a huge majority of Americans distrust their government, but they still functionally put their trust in government in every conceivable ways. A tax strike in the US is unthinkable. Voter turnouts are low, but the majority of elegible voters still vote, despite saying they don't trust their government. Electoral candidates with negative approval win elections. Nobody believes in anything, it's a walking zombie of a country.
