Reply to comment by surreal in Are there boundaries in satire? by surreal
seeing some questionable satire around behavioral assessment; ad-hominems involving social-aptitude/communication defecit, autism dementia i think good satire is actually uplifting, drawing on a common, good-natured humor. it is not condescending , malicious or spiteful

i agree! its supposed to be a contrast to drama and hardship. levity, joy, without these what is anything worth? IMHO the funniest stuff is sometimes capable of taking the darkness and bleakness of the human experience and using that as material to make people laugh so, where is the line? we make it up as we go along anf fail quite often.
