Satire is a contribution. Where those in power fail the truth test, satire has served since the dawn of print, to cast the light of truth on the half truths of the powerful.

This isn't satire. All you did was replace Apple with Orange and take a cynical stance on what they said.
Except satire is supposed to be funny. Your post isn't.
Please do not post subjective opinions stated as fact. Personally I found it amusing. The upvote/downvote system will effectively aggregate these subjective opinions and display the comment appropriately.

Your post, however, just comes across to me as trollish.

Pretty ironic that I reached 500 karma with the post that you call "trollish". Now I can downvote both the original shitty satire and your silly accusations!

(Just kidding, of course.)

You must own an orange phone with shitty maps! lol...
changing apple to orange and putting shitty in front of the word maps isn't satire. it's find/replace in notepad.
