The research is real. The solutions are not. Satire built on primary sources, verified data, and the quiet fury of watching serious problems be managed with unserious answers for decades.
This is not mockery for its own sake. Every piece in this section sits on a foundation of fact — the jokes are ours, the numbers belong to the people who created the conditions that made them necessary.
The articles in this section are satirical. All factual claims and data referenced within them are sourced and verifiable. The proposed solutions, characters, and scenarios are fictional. Any resemblance to actual government policy is both unintentional and deeply concerning.
