I know, I know! Hot buttons and controversy, but there's more. I have been a long time admirer of Mrs Betty Bowers - who bills herself as AMERICA'S BEST CHRISTIAN. A satirical wonder, happily skewering hypocrisy in its many guises.
I just found out she is actually Deven Green, a drag queen. It's embarrassing, but I hadn't a clue. Maybe I should have watched the credits on her videos a bit more closely and I wouldn't be so clueless. Anyway, if you are a liberal you really should check her out. If you aren't, it would only piss you off.

Heck, even science is a hot button here.

She's a a married comedienne/parody artist and model and former professional figure skater originally from Manitoba.. The confusion comes from a one time guest appearance on Ru Paul's Drag Race.

Not sure it's satire
There can be a lot of tongue in cheek comments wrapped up in the concept it's satire. To excuse or hide what she portrays or says as satire is beyond the boundaries.

Satire and blasphemy
Saying "I identify as an attack helicopter,
my pronouns are 'attack' and 'helicopter'..."
to make fun of "delusional" trans or nonbinary people is satire.
It's not very good or at this point the least bit original satire, but it's satire.
Something doesn't stop being satire just because I don't like it or agree with
whatever point it's trying to make. Members of the Right have come up with much better
parodies than that one to ridicule me and my beliefs. Some are even pretty brilliant.
I can appreciate their cleverness even while they totally piss me off.
And to paraphrase (very loosely) Voltaire, I may not agree with
what they say but I'll fight for their right to be assholes.
