There’s always a debate about whether satire
defangs the monster. Do you ever worry that’s a danger?
I don’t know about a danger. It is a big
debate. And it is a dilemma. But just imagine if there was no satire. Everybody
would be getting away with murder. And satire may not change anything, but it
quickens people’s consciousness, and it reassures people that you’re not the
only one who feels this way. Yes, it is true that satirists are preaching to
the choir, but they’re emboldening the choir. That’s why it’s important.
John Lithgow
