Satire or irony

“This time, clearly, given the scope of the tragedy, it will be different, and meaningful change is definitely going to happen thanks to the actions of brave lawmakers representing this locality.”
· Being Shot With a Gun is Now the Leading Cause of Death for Children in America · substack post

Marked or evident satire, hyperbole or irony.
