Why is it mocking the target?]]> 2017-12-18 13:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mibrahimi/u0b6z1w59ynz/wish/216931590 mibrahimi https://padlet.com/mibrahimi/u0b6z1w59ynz/wish/216931993 The target of the satire is to mock Trump’s travel ban that was instituted a few months ago. The ban is mainly for those coming to the United States from Middle Eastern countries and this is effectively show in the video. It often shows airport services discriminating against people of color with a hint of humor. The narrator that interrupts is criticizing the lady giving the commercial in order to show that although these commercialists aren’t explicitly saying their intended discrimination, it is evidently seen in the laws that President Trump has passed.]]> 2017-12-18 13:21:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mibrahimi/u0b6z1w59ynz/wish/216931993 mibrahimi https://padlet.com/mibrahimi/u0b6z1w59ynz/wish/216933612 Welcome Video - SNL]]> 2017-12-18 13:26:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mibrahimi/u0b6z1w59ynz/wish/216933612 mibrahimi https://padlet.com/mibrahimi/u0b6z1w59ynz/wish/217626008 The satire is mocking the Travel ban placed by Trump.

The video presents itself as a welcome video seen in an airport but it is filled with exaggeration that emphasizes the obsurd nature of the Ban.]]> 2017-12-21 03:24:29 UTC https://padlet.com/mibrahimi/u0b6z1w59ynz/wish/217626097 mibrahimi https://padlet.com/mibrahimi/u0b6z1w59ynz/wish/217626143 The purpose of the satire is to make a social criticism, specifically one directed at Trump. The narrator includes several remarks that are intended to humor the audience but also offend the person that is causing such a video to be made. The people involved in the making of the video obviously feel that the ban is unnecessary and discriminatory, and that it should be repealed and STAY repealed.]]> 2017-12-21 03:25:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mibrahimi/u0b6z1w59ynz/wish/217626143
