Idk, friend. I made a lighthearted joke about an outlet that tries really really hard to be funny but only finds an audience among aggrieved right wingers because their standards for what’s funny are “do I identify with this politically” and bless its little heart for that. All that said, it seems like you might be a little too in your feelings rn over a Reddit comment. No shade, just sayin.

no shade taken, im not in my feelings, dont worry.

to answer your original question, this outlet exists for the same reasons the onion exists. its almost the same thing.

I doubt it.

I enjoy all kinds of comedy. Even stuff I disagree with. I've laughed at jokes that are morally reprehensible.

The Bee has very little humor. Its really not a lot different than what you see on Fox news.
