Hyperbole isn't a knife. Any more than a political cartoonist's brush. It is satire. Biting humor.

The more ridiculous the caricature, the less you are supposed to take the details literally.

The "culprit" is a lightening rod. Taking the heat for what is obviously the result of a lot of people's seemingly poor or unfortunate judgements. Google search was a thing of beauty. Now it is an ugly swamp I have personally stopped trying to wade through.
