Skewering right wing hypocrisy is at its absolute best an amusing waste of time. At its best. But wasting time is OK! It's good to have hobbies. And efficiency is, as everyone is learning, a false god.

But...when skewering hypocrisy: try not to run the sword through the social goods the baddies are supposedly hypocritically abusing.

People depend on welfare. It's a public and moral good. And spreading conservative framings of such goods and their beneficiaries into folks' brains? It's neither.
