This is a normal post what a deeply unpleasant seeming woman
Any idea what her basis for "dinosaurs were invented before fossils were found" is?
Fossil discoveries go back thousands of years, but as far as I know the term Dinosaur is from 1800s

This is a normal post Supernarrowvision satire
The CAD folks are attempting to show how daft dino-denialists are, by appearing to take their side and posting tripe like this ^^.

The pity is that they are taken seriously by both sides.

This is a normal post satire should always have a knowing wink, this just comes across as misinformation for everyone

This is a normal post 'satire should always have a knowing wink'?
Says who? Who made you the comedy police? Why should stuff be labelled for idiots? I don't like this CAD joke for a variety of reasons such as I don't think it's funny, and I hate that creationism seems only to be used as source material for Christian bashing. All of the fairy tale brigade, Jews, Muslims etc, are creationists. However I admire how CAD has taken in so many mugs who need a laughter track overdubbed on their comedy.

This is a normal post How do you know this is comedy?
Seems odd that a satirical act would set their Facebook page to private/invite only.
Although I guess they could be safeguarding themselves from angry Christians.
If it is comedy, the "knowing wink" that you have spotted is proving elusive to a great many.

This is a normal post OK, I kind of assumed that this was the same
person/group that had started that thread on mumsnet that was posted on here that was obviously a joke, but I concede that this loony probably isn't joking. However I still take issue with your suggestion that satire needs to be signposted. That's just not true. Sometimes the more subtle the satire, the more effective it is. Satire is primarily a method of criticism, humour is secondary, or even a by product.

This is a normal post But for it to be satire the criticism must be executed through humour and wit.
Surely neither is secondary? Certainly not a by-product though, the by-product would be the satire.
Edit: should read 'could be the satire'.

This is a normal post Not true.
I crap on about satire so much on here I'm even boring myself. Satire is criticism under the veil of ridicule. How witty or humorous that attempted ridicule actually is varies enormously, and obviously is subjective. So for example, all those Charlie Hebdo cartoons were satirical, but witty? Funny? Not in my opinion, well maybe a few of them, but mainly not at all.

This is a normal post I'm lumping, perhaps incorrectly, that ridicule into wit.
Wit doesn't have to be witty and funny doesn't have to be 'ha ha'.

This is a normal post Have you asked to join? It's worth a look
I don't know why it's set to private - trying to appear like paranoid fundies perhaps - but I was added within a minute or two of my request. For research purposes, natch.

It's quite a mosh pit in there! All sorts of different factions are joining in - dinofundies, creationists, antidinofundies, satirists, palaeos, plus legions of sniggereing trolls/redditors.

It's really worth a read but it'll leave your head spinning trying to figure out who is deluded and who is disingenuous.
