    Parody is different to satire.

    Parody is an imitation of another piece of media or work where you are making comedic commentary of that work.

    Satire is using comedy to offer commentary, to carry a message, or to offer criticism about the world.

    Yes, like Programmers are also human. That is satire as well, same as Fireship.

      It’s satire, but it’s a different kind of satire. When I hear satire I think of Programmers are also human and his content is completely different than fireship’s.
