If people start using it as a reference to facts, all one has to do is to point out that this is comedic. I'm going to say that these fact checks are put in place to prevent people from accessing satire sites because they don't like the implication of the humour being used. "Don't make fun of my beliefs". They do the same to people who call themselves comedians. Comedians don't like doing universities anymore because those, who become offended at jokes, have become violent at times. "Speech is violence" is the mantra.

I fully agree that satire fully intends to reveal truth! A clever satire introduces novel juxtapositions of ideas to inspire insights on the veracity of the implicit claims, with the humor resulting from the new insights. These "jokes" published by Babylon Bee are not so much telling a satirical narrative, as they are memes pandering to the pre-existing beliefs of its audience. These are not serving to reveal anything that the reader doesn't already take for granted. If satire is defined by revealing truth, some of the contents produced by the Babylon Bee are not satire.

I'm very curious specifically about SouthPark because I have followed it for 21 seasons now, and the creators have remained very consistent in their Philosophy in my view, despite having made a dreadful miscalculation in Season 19 by assuming that the Mr Garrison running for president plot would be over at the end of the season, which they explained and apologize for in their audio commentary for "The end of serialization as we know it!" I'm a huge fan of the Simpsons Seasons 1-10, but after season 10, the original writers quit after the corporate owners of the brand of the show gave creative control to a new executive producer, David X Cohen who had never seen the show before. The Simpsons has become a strange pro Liberalism piece in recent seasons, so I no longer watch. Also, to be clear, I am reading your statement "pushed me to the right" as meaning that your core political values have grown more conservative & less egalitarian, rather than meaning "my antagonism towards the Democratic party has increased" (which is perfectly understandable as I would detest any external influences that are messing with my shows)

Luther then began to write lengthy Pamphlets & tracts mixing news, humor, theology & criticism of the Status quo - aimed squarely at the out of control Clergy & their unwarranted dominance of the culture & individual Christians.

I used to go to Snopes and recommend people use it when wondering if some random rumour is true. Not anymore since about 2019, when they started lying and becoming the same thing they were against. That said, loss of humor is cognitive decay and you can tell who Snopes writes these for: people who have lost touch with reality.
