Satirists

Satirists are artists or writers who use satire—a form of humor, irony, or exaggeration—to critique and expose flaws, hypocrisies, or issues within society, politics, or human nature. Their goal is often to provoke thought or promote change by highlighting problems in a witty or clever way. Examples include writers like Jonathan Swift or comedians like John Stewart. Satirists employ their craft to challenge the status quo, encourage reflection, and sometimes entertain by revealing uncomfortable truths through their sharp, insightful commentary.
