SATIRE Satire is primarily a literary genre or form, although in practice it can also be found in the graphic and performing arts. In satire, vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, and society itself, into improvement. Politics is a popular choice of subject. Although satire is usually meant to be funny, its greater purpose is constructive social criticism, using wit and sarcasm as a weapon.
