Assignment Thirteen: Sam Clark
Can one satire satire? Or is the satire contained within satire enough to override any earnest (What is earnesty?), satirical feelings derived from an honest interpretation of the satire itself? Or is satire merely a way of communicating ideas and expressions which cannot be communicated honestly (What is honesty?)? What if I end every sentence in this blog post with a question mark? What if, and hang with me on this one, satire is used only by the degenerates, those whose feelings are so atypical and unorthodox that to convey them would be a complete violation of the social contract, to voice those ideas which they completely and honestly believe, and that they’re so calculating that they know, and I mean absolutely know, that our minds, driven by an inability to understand true evil, will automatically assume that what they’re saying isn’t what they believe, isn’t truth? What if it isn’t satire?
