@chimerror YES EXACTLY :) It's... it's like someone dipped a joke frame into a wet thesaurus and stopped there without understanding what any of it meant. There's no *statement* in it. There's so much room for real satire or real visionary politics in this joke structure. But there's no there there.

re: polsnark 

@chimerror I realize it's probably this incoherent on purpose because it's a "deepfried" satire of political compasses. There's just... at least a dozen quotation marks around anything they're saying here and I just can't live like that in '21.

@chimerror I miss the Church of the Subgenius. They had their flaws but DAMN could they crank out a baroque infographic.
