We're just posting anti-union propaganda on the fediverse now?

Are y'all at least getting paid for it? fedposting

How many times does satire and irony posting have to backfire on us before we realize that shit only works if the person is smart enough to be in on the joke; otherwise we're just propagandizing against ourselves.

Yeah, I think the fakenews comm is enough for irony joke comms, and it's much funnier bait that's easier to understand as a joke.
