A satire essay will tell certain truths about society and then try to improve upon them. Satire is meant to be constructive rather than destructive.

Take one look at dead ringers (the tv-show not the movie) and it will be clear.

"Although satire is usually witty, and often very funny, the purpose of satire is not primarily humour but criticism of an event, an individual or a group in a clever manner."
