"satire requires clarity of" Actually let's put that T-shirt back on the clothing rack for a second. What satire needs is to be 1. visibly different in a material way from the thing you're satirizing, and 2. actually funny.

There is technically nothing physically stopping you from going onto to a post made by a stranger who doesn't know you or your sense of humor, or just making a post on your own blog and making it as visible to as many people as possible, and saying something "ironically" which is completely indistinguishable from if you were being sincere. But I don't think you have any business getting surprised if other people misunderstand you.

Like when you're doing any kind of comedy, you have to know your audience, y'know? Your joke still needs to land even if your audience doesn't know you, and step 1 is making it recognizable as a joke.
