Satire.
It's a useful tool that's been around forever.
It's closely related to parody, and in fact can often be both.
Good satire is generally amusing while also making a point.
But satire, and particularly full parody, can also wind up indistinguishable from the
real thing it's making fun of.
This is especially true of more subtle forms mocking extremism.
Subtle satire can easily be presented the same way a sincere belief would, and extremist
views can often be so absurd that it's impossible to create a parody even more ridiculous than
the real view.
In essence, this is where we get Poe's Law.
I would like to demonstrate how Real's satire piece claiming liberals want a white ethnostate
is itself such an example, virtually indistinguishable to an outsider without disclaimers from things
promoted and loved right here on YouTube, and perhaps even things he's said himself.
Real: "The world is flipped upside down but the left swears that the dining room table
isn't somehow on the ceiling.
This overt racism extends beyond frivolous music festivals.
It is being fostered within the halls and offices occupied by people who might impact
legislative branches of the government"
[FWD]
"This line of thinking - the demonization of white men and women -
is growing more pervasive.
With each day. This philosophy of intrinsic racial privilege, of invisible systems of
oppression, of white supremacy, is being steadily conditioned into the populace."
Computing Forever: "Not True.
Actually the opposite.
Hatred of white people is mainstream it seems.
In the media, in academia, in entertainment, in the workplace, right"
Real: "Because the truth is that the left has been normalizing radical, toxic, and deluded
ideals without repercussion within every available agent of socialization.
They see mutually accepted social norms surrounding gender, obesity, marriage, among many other
things as harmful in their current existence, therefore they must be deconstructed.
But no other exhaustive effort to eradicate established ethics has been as extreme as
their zealous racism"
Irate Bear: "this, of course, triggered [=1] a response from the alt-left, [+1] the SJW
[+1] left, who obviously weren't amused by this and took it as hateful.
I find this extremely irritating. Not because they put these signs up but because of the
reaction.
You see, neo-Marxists [+1] - the left basically -
have been painting white people, specifically white men -wait- white straight men as the bourgeoisie
and everybody else has been oppressed by them."
Real: "Let us define the problem through the leftist perspective.
Society is built on an oppressive, white supremacist system.
White supremacy is actively marginalizing women, people of color, queer-identifying
people, fat people, the differently-abled, and so on.
The continued existence of white people perpetuates white supremacy in Western society."
Dennis Prager: "The left's view is that America was founded by rich white males who were intent
on protecting their race, their wealth, and in many cases their slaves.
America was and remains sexist, intolerant, xenophobic, and bigoted."
Ben Shapiro: "On the college campus today, feelings rule facts and victims are heroes.
According to the left, all inequality in America is due to victimization.
They start by claiming that all non-white people in America are victims of white privilege"
"in short everyone's victim except, of course,
straight white males.
Also anybody who dares to disagree with the left.
If you're guilty of either of those crimes, you must be confronted even if doing so requires
actual aggression like, say, a riot."
Real: "Let us honestly consider a logical solution to this issue.
The only reasonable conclusion that I can arrive at is the universal removal and relocation
of all white people on the planet to their own separate ethnic nation-state "
Guest Bill Johnson: "Ok.
No, I think it should be... my ideal society'd be a white ethno-state where the schools are
made up of blond-haired blue-eyed, red-haired green-eyed whatever mixture we have children..."
"This is why discussions about something as hitherto inconceivable as white nationalism
is on the rise.
I think I can understand certain perspectives where people say 'well if we're so terrible
as white people we should really leave you all alone.'
Right, 'We should just withdraw ourselves to our own areas and we should just separate
because this is not working.'"
Real: "Despite a liberal monopoly on education, years of social activism, and constant conditioning
through media campaigns, a man like Donald Trump was elected to the highest office in
the free world."
Guest: "The problem is it goes much deeper than you would think"
"So it's going all the way even to Visa and
MasterCard are banning businesses.
They're banning conservative individuals, alternative tech companies"
"So not only do we see a monopoly with these
tech companies but they're not allowing conservative alternatives to get in."
"That's amazing"
Real: "Consider the stranglehold that they have maintained over society during the last
decade."
With the seemingly limitless resources of
entertainment, media, marketing campaigns, and higher acedamia reinforcing them, this
effort has been overwhelmingly successful."
Real: "you know that everything I'm saying is true.
That this is the only way.
Don't deny it.
You want this.
Admit it."
And finally, allow me to read, for anyone who may not be watching, a couple actual comments.
"Some really salty people in the comments section aren't getting it: Real's steel-manning
the leftists arguments and creating satire!"
"With all due respect, I think you missed an option: Murder all whites.
Relocating whites to their own ethnostate is a humane way to eliminate all racism of
whites on others, but if you consider inhumane options then a holocaust would also be viable.
And to be quite frank, I do believe that 'leftists' are more in favor of that than your idea.
I think they do not want whites anywhere.
And by teaching whites not to breed and convincing POC to breed quickly they are literally engaging
in the behavior they are accused of by the conspiracy theorists that claim that there
is an active white genocide going on."
So, as you can see, satire or not, nothing in this video actually is beyond what some
people truly believe, even limited to what can be found on YouTube.
There are people out there who propose such a state, though they're far from the majority
of those who believe the rest of what's stated in this video [real's].
But people do believe, or at least state, many of these things. That the left is in control of everything, that
it is using all its power to prevent conservatives from getting anywhere (and by extension that
Trump's win was a win against an entity controlling every aspect of public society), that the
left hates white people and even wants them killed, which is far beyond the satirical proposal,
rather than the other way around.
In fact, it is apparently even believed by someone in the comments that this representation
of what the left believes is the strongest, most defensible representation of their position.
Far from being clear satire,
if I didn't watch Real and didn't see the disclaimers, I'd believe that this was just another example.
In fact, to a degree I wonder how much of it really was...
