Wow, yeah that's really, really bad satire. He's obviously trying to lampoon the way people are talking about this but satire really does need some level of subtlety. It works being this overblown and over the top if the actual discourse surrounding the event is almost this overblown but nothing I've read so far suggests anything like this. Toned down a factor of 10 it could have worked as decent satire but it's the equivalent of trying to send up Woody Allen films by doing an impression of him in Schindler's List.
