Answer
Satire is a genre of literature, and especially fiction, in which vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, corporations, government, or society itself into improvement. Although satire is usually funny, its purpose is not primarily humor but criticism.
