Satire done right is close enough to reality to make you pause for a second and wonder, "Is this for real?"

Stands to reason that it works the other way too.

I think in this case it's a good thing tho (normally I'm with you)

Why? The Heritage Foundation are an intellectual joke. They can't win in the war of ideas, they can't suggest ideas that will last any test of time, and now are actively working to make their whim law crushing democracy itself. So if they are a joke why not mock them?

Mark Twain

And in this event is the seeds to beat the bastards. They want us to be scared they want us to take them seriously. Some group of script kiddies made them say gay furries. To actually go out there and talk about gay furries. Serious men in serious suits saying gay furries.

Keep it up. Make them talk about sex toys, pointless fandom debates, body fluids, anything that brings them down to the level of mockery
