I have no idea what the quality of their other articles is like but, as I read it, I found myself wondering if it was so over-the-top because prior drafts had been too believable. The title and even first paragraph of the article seem totally plausible. I didn't think anything of it until I got to the line about anti-woke witchcraft.
