American Muck is a satire website. None of the events depicted in our fake news stories actually happened. And apart from the public figures we’re making fun of or passively mentioning, none of the people named in our content exist. Even our writers are only, like, 60% real at best.
We create this content in an oftentimes misguided attempt at humor. It’s intended to hopefully and occasionally be entertaining to people leaning politically left, in part because our writers are progressives and liberals and moderates, and also because conservatives genuinely aren’t funny. At least, not because they’re trying to be.
Some of our stories are rooted in facts. Sometimes we use real news, data, and historical context for comedic effect or push our story along in some other way. It’s up to you, as a human person with more than two brain cells to rub together, to understand the differences between reality and fiction. If you want someone to hold your hand while you carefully wade into satire, explaining the nuances and walking you through the jokes while apologizing to you each and every time you feel mildly offended, we encourage you to leave.
Legal mumbo jumbo
Our content is intended for audiences 18 years of age and older. It regularly contains crewdness, lewdness, and rudeness. We use naughty language, sexual jokes, references to drugs and alcohol and cigarettes, photos of Marjorie Taylor Greene’s feet, and other terrifying things that are somehow more traumatizing than that.
If you’re under the age of 18, please text your mom and ask her to provide you with verbal consent to visit this website as soon as she gets home from her session with that “spin instructor” your dad seems a bit weird around. If they’re already divorced, any parent or legal guardian will suffice. In the meantime, please leave this website immediately and go back to shouting edgy racist insults into your headset while playing whichever video game is currently babysitting you.
Satire is protected free speech under the First Amendment, with Supreme Court precedent thanks to a lawsuit between an Evangelical nutbag and some horny porno nerd back in the 1980s. All of the images presented on our website are royalty free, have Creative Commons licensing, or were paid for or given to us. Some of our content is AI generated, because none of us at American Muck have any degree of marketable talent. So please … don’t sue us. It’s not like you’d get any substantial amount of money anyway
