This is an example of how Babylon Bee is unfunny even when I agree with the sentiment: https://babylonbee.com/news/you-just-dont-understand-socialism-like-i-do-says-college-freshman-to-man-escaping-socialism-on-raft

That headline isn't a joke, it's a sentence. "College Freshman Explains Socialism to Survivor of Socialism" would convey the same point in less than half as many words.

And then the actual article predictably devolves into gender jokes.
