A mascot for Rudd's Stimulus...

It may be a little late but take a look at this:




Definitely worth a try ;)

Facebook, the neccesary evil...

As a project in social engineering, and largely as a good humored joke (because thats what we're about, humor!) the authors here at SatireSpot have created their very own Facebook Page.

Now, for anyone who has been in cryogenic suspension for the last 20 years hoping to wake to a brighter future, a facebook page is as its name suggests a page on facebook used to advertise and garner support for a brand, business, politician etc.

So we decided to create one. For this task we chose the most ridiculous product we could imagine and tried (in all seriousness) to argue it was the cause of our favourite conspiracy. Impossible you might exclaim? Well we were horrified too when more than 110,000 facebook users agreed with us that the cleaning product, 'Shamwow' was in fact the cause of Droughts, not Global Warming as several scowling scientists might argue.

We at SatireSpot are greatly thankful for those informed users who chose to become fans of our page. It is a constant source of amusement for us but on a deeper note the page has also sparked actual debate about climate change, often with humorous results.

Welcome, One and All

Woody Allen once said:

"...the tendency for most people is to fall back on a comic interpretation of things...things are so sad, so terrible. If you didn't laugh you'd kill yourself."

And for that reason we chose to call this 'SatireSpot' rather than 'politics blog x or politics blog y'.

For In the jungle of society in which the deadly political correctness virus runs rampant and people are terrified by government spin-doctors and economic meltdowns, the authors here at SatireSpot prefer humor to scaremongering.

In a liberal-democratic society we should not have feelings of anger, hatred or even fear for politicians, bureaucrats and intellectuals. Instead we should treat them as a source of humor rather than alarm.

For instance a UK government survey found "Two-thirds of people aged between 25 and 34 said they were stressed about general money problems...A third of those questioned in the YouGov survey managed only six hours of sleep, or less, a night."

It's official, worrying will kill you, so why not laugh instead:









































Our blog encompasses all things relating to contemporary society, namely politics and environment.

So if something we have written has struck a chord with you go ahead and follow, on the contrary, if you wish to abuse us then go ahead, Free Country (for now)
