The article is actually decently well written good-faith satire meant to address how poverty and hunger are inherent to capitalism as a system. The title was just too bold lol

He calls it "not satire" but "provocative". So he doesn't mean it, but says it to provoke a reaction... Like satire.

It sounds like he just doesn't find it funny, which is why he doesn't want to call it satire.

It doesn't have to be funny haha to be satire. Just like dramatic irony doesn't have to be a knee slapper.
