Long answer, it really rode the line between satire/sincere lunatic, until I read this bio for one of their "authors":

She attended UC Berkley, which is where she met Tina Mironov. Jamie eventually graduated with a Gender Studies and Queer Theory major with a minor in Journalism.

Bwahahaha, going to try make the argument that the world Cup was won by white supremacy.
PLEASE make that the argument as then we can go into ALL the failures of France like immigration, cultural hegemony, the fact that they are French and the focus for a long time on a European superstate that has just made everything worse.
It is obvious satire. I honestly thought it was written by OpenGPT until a few paragraphs in.
Write a New York Times article explaining how Argentina defeating France for the World Cup is white supremacy, sexist and biased against the Welsh.
On Sunday, Argentina defeated France to win their first-ever World Cup title, a victory that has sparked controversy and accusations of white supremacy, sexism, and bias against the Welsh.
The victory of Argentina over France is highly significant in the context of world football. It marks the first time that a South American team has won the World Cup, a feat long sought after by many in Argentina and throughout the continent. But, it is also a victory that has been met with criticism from some who argue that it is a result of a system of white supremacy, sexism and bias against the Welsh.
The accusations of white supremacy come from the fact that Argentina’s team is predominantly white. The team’s manager is also white, as is the majority of the coaching staff. This has led some to claim that Argentina’s victory is a result of a system of privilege that favors white players and coaches.
In addition, there have been accusations of sexism in Argentina’s victory. The team’s star player, Lionel Messi, was not even born in Argentina and was raised in Spain, yet he is the face of the team and has been credited with the team’s success. This has led to claims that Argentina’s success is a result of a patriarchal system that favors male players over female players.
Finally, there have been claims of bias against the Welsh. Despite the fact that Wales is part of the United Kingdom, which has won the World Cup three times, Wales has never even qualified for the tournament. This has led some to argue that there is an unfair bias against the Welsh that has enabled Argentina to win their first World Cup.
The accusations of white supremacy, sexism and bias against the Welsh in Argentina’s victory are serious, and it is clear that there is still much work to be done to ensure that the playing field is fair and equitable for all teams. Until then, the victory of Argentina will remain a contentious one.
Setting this aside, look at the "French" team and try to keep a straight face. I think they only have one actual French dude on their squad? Literally everyone else is black.
And now that they lost, right on q they're crying to the media about racism and the entire world is falling all over themselves to condemn it. I have no doubt the French police will be arresting people soon for the comments they posted online. (though as always, most of the comments are from people in other countries)
Is this a satire page?
Short answer, yes.
Long answer, it really rode the line between satire/sincere lunatic, until I read this bio for one of their "authors":
Honestly that bio rides the line too.
my job is not to listen or agree.
If you go to the main page, the entire site is Bee-like.

True but two things:
It gave me an opportunity to bash France, I always take those chances
Satire nowadays works like prophecy, give it a week, don't be surprised if NY Times says Argentina's win has links to nazism..
Honestly, this still doesn’t read like something written by a living, breathing, English-speaking human, even with the full thing, lol…
It’s like, if AI attempted to write “satire”, or something…
I guess that’s the vibe they were going for..?
The structure and style make it sound like something I'd write in high school for my English class as a non-native English speaker.
His parents must be so proud.
Lol, I loved that one too!
Yes.
GTFOOH!!! Made me snort my coffee.
Things got a bit Messi?
They MSPainted a swastika on the photo...
u/RPD2 what's wrong with you? Archive that garbage before posting it here.
Garbage? I thought it was hilarious. What's wrong with it in your opinion?
That you didn't archive it.
I have a feeling you missed it was satire ;)
Oh... how embarrassing. Never heard of this site before.
Looks kinda like the Babylon Bee, but more subtle and spicy :)
It is well crafted satire because it’s just plausible enough that it was written by a crazy leftist.
