megwrites: Reading girl by Renoir.  (Default)
In case you hadn't already seen it linked hither and yon (as it rightly should be):

On Wiscon... by [personal profile] deepad.

This is how satire is done right. To wit:

My school didn't have a single white person in it. I was always warned to be careful about US-ians, because they would try to sell you corn syrup Coca-Cola and capitalist free-market ideology and sexually promiscuous movies with dead or evil black and brown people. And when I am surrounded by large groups of them, even when they are well-meaning and friendly and nice and interested in the same books I am, I still have an irrational fear that they might colonise me.
