Satire is going to be a lost art in 20 years.

Hurting people's feeling might be a capital offense by then.

I doubt satire will go away completely but I think it will start to be less and less

I thought it was already a "hate crime", you mean it isn't?

Just think how busy Tom Cruise is going to be when he has to start arresting everyone for what they are going to think in the future...

"Never use satire to make your point," was one of the basic tenets of a communications seminar I was required to attend for work. They said regardless of how effective it could be in getting your point across, it was still just making fun of someone.

That and the way they taught us to apologize are the only things I remember from that week. What a waste of time and resources.

A movie like Blazing Saddles would never be made today.

If you're going to be racist, at least be funny. I'll forgive racism so long as it's either clever or has a legit point. Just naming someone Shitting Deer or having someone perform a rain dance while pissing is neither clever nor funny. It's just shite and laughing at people who are different. Nothing more.

It already is, especially when the history is not something they actually experienced.
