Why I've reported Douglas Murray to the police [satire]

Isn’t satire supposed to be easy to distinguish from reality? This piece seems like something an author might really mean today.

I guess it is easier if you have seen Titania McGrath, the author, who just does satire all day.

You’re right, I’ve just never heard of her and seen non-satire pieces that are very similar.

For the best part of 300 pages Murray spews his hateful bile – on white paper, no less – denouncing social justice, identity politics and intersectionality. Even the font has a certain heteronormative quality about it. He rails against “millennial snowflakes” who all “identify as attack helicopters” and how “you can’t say anything anymore” and that “you can go to prison for singing the national anthem these days”. I mean, he doesn’t actually write any of these words, but we all know that’s what he’s thinking.
