    that’s satire, right? has to be. please. “unemployed minors”, that’s just a fancy phrase for “children” who ARE IN SCHOOL

    My single favorite report was on this one.

    Misleading title, it’s not clear this is a parody post.

    For those that don’t know, it’s a parody.

      It is obvious because of “couches”, but apart from that, it could have been 100% Fox “News”.

      Making parodies in modern times is a difficult business. You make up a joke, just to see that reality just overtook you with the pedal to the metal.

        It sucks that I was unsure at “unemployed minors,” because the party is overtly pro-child labor and that bad at optics.

        Nah I was completely ready to believe that Fox News would take a joke Walz made about couches (which I knew he did) and claim it was an assault on money and freedom.

      Did they just change the list? I’m not sure what to think if the title headline is accurate or not.

        I’d say it’s innacurate.

        TBH I reported it. I think the title should at least suggest its a parody, though I’m not sure if OP knows it is.

      Gotta think about it because the ‘right’ ‘wing’ is pretty weird and fox is a fire in a bin outside a Gregs in Rotherham but no, the couch fucker tax is a giveaway.

        I could tell by “LGBTQIA+” and “Rights”, also the phrasing of the medical care one.

        I laughed out loud at the couches, which combined with rampant lgbtq + rights makes it cleary a joke.

    I mean, it’s obviously fake, but on the other hand, it’s disturbingly close to something they’d actually show to rile up their not-so-smart-or-empathetic viewers.
