This is my least favorite recurring Hexbear take tbh. Not all things dubbed "satire" are the same and didacticism is not the only way.

Do you have examples of useful satire?

I am willing to debate this and reconsider my view but I never see anyone materially demonstrate its usefulness.

This is not an example of satire, it's surrealism.
