Where does the satire end and real life begin ... This is actually a 'real' post and the satire is REAL LIFE - from the people's cube - actual fact, not 'fictional' satire.
Recycled parody: CNN's Zakaria calls for jihadi rape of white women
To the credit of the Politifact writer, Jon Greenberg, he treated the People's Cube with respect, quoted several of our articles and headlines, and even gave a little promo for our beloved Comrade Chedoh. Furthermore, before publishing this story, he emailed me, the People's Director, asking for a comment:
PolitiFact query: Satire inspired hate speech
Hi -
As we plow our way through nonsense posts I wonder if you could give me your thoughts on the resilience of your article about Zakaria calls for Jihad rape of white women. It gained traction in January 2016, and now we're seeing it again. A mindless site called teoinfo pasted your copy into an article on June 30, 2017. July 2, a website called Reclaim Australia Rally shared it, drawing comments such as "Would be considered hate speech if this was said by a white person about any other race. I hope this goat shagging inbred chokes."
What you post as satire is taken as actual fact by less discerning readers and draws them together on pages such as Reclaim Australia.
Seems to me you end up feeding the forces you mock. Is that consistent with your purpose? Is that what you intend and if not, how do you respond to critiques such as this one?
Thanks for getting back to me.

I wanted to write back with a question if the author (or Politifact in general) had ever sent a similar query to Tina Fey and the SNL producers about how they felt about "I can see Russia from my house" and other fake Sarah Palin quotes that aired on SNL and that that many people to this day believe to be authentic. Or to any other comedy-making progs who believe their job is to destroy all opponents of proggism by assassinating their characters from within a fake frame of reference. Or to the "serious" news organs whose fake stories have prompted the recent shooting in Washington. ZINGO !
But first I wanted to execute some political prisoners for inspiration, and I never do that without first drinking a glass of our fine beet vodka. So I went to the local gulag-and-distillery (located in Tractor Barn #2) hoping to refill my one-gallon container.
Imagine my disappointment when I found the gulag gate wide open, with Comrade Chedoh passed out drunk next to an empty vodka tank. So I had to go pick some beets and distill a new batch of vodka for the kollektive. Then I had to go around town denouncing enemies of the people for hate speech until I rounded up enough thoughtcriminals to fill the gulag to its projected capacity. After a day filled with righteous and selfless toil for the common good I passed out on the dirt floor next to Comrade Chedoh.
By the time I got back to my 5 horsepower "Laika 2000" computer to write my response, the Politifact article was already published. Oh well, I promise to distill vodka faster the next time I receive a presumptive query with the words "Satire inspired hate speech" in the title.
If you want some pleasurable reading, the comments following are a real HOOT !
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good ...
