Well, what if it is acknowledged as satire, but opens the gate for serious discussion, instead if just starting out with shitposting and leading to shitpost comments?

You see, this is my line of thinking <.<

If the satire raises a good point for discussion, then I don't see why it should be haram for the serious board. If it's just to have a good laugh at idiots i.e 'Obama confirms that he is indeed a muslim reptile from saudia arabia sent to destroy christianity'

Well, if you do not allow satire, I do not see why you would allow any religious discussion. Religion is not a serious topic.

Doesn't satire just destroy the whole point of this board being "Serious?"

Well take a look at the native american council thread, that was a satirical post but it generated 3 pages of discussion over immigration issues. Until it ended in QQs but eh, that's pretty inevitable when certain members start to argue.
You're trying to endorse satire via an example of a derailed thread?

I'm just going to point out that prior to the derailment it was a legitimate discussion about immigration. The fact that it ended up getting derailed means nothing since that can happen to any thread.

Of course. Any thread can get derailed, so it's a thread-by-thread case.

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.
It's a game of discretion. Proper satire can be of service in making a good point. So, yes, satire could have it's place here.

The King has spoken.
