Because, while held in high praise for being associated with wit and a sort of detachment from ordinary views, it has become a way to reinforce the status quo and a solipsist exercise. Just like its half-literate sister Satire it is only for the educated and the privileged to attack those who are already weak rather than a weapon against the powerful.

See e.g. one example here https://octodon.social/@steko/102100761547968753 ... being "ironically" racist is no better than the outright racism of hate groups.
@freemo
because I can do without the structural irony (irony must die, remember), the US centric world view and, lately, the aggrandizing self promotion.
