However, you can use "satirize" as a verb, which means "to criticize someone or something using satire."
Here are some examples:
* "The cartoonist satirized the politician's recent gaffe."
* "The author satirized the absurdities of modern life in her new novel."
You can also use the phrase "to satirize something" or "to satirize someone" to convey the same meaning:
* "The play aimed to satirize the hypocrisy of the wealthy elite."
* "The comedian was known for satirizing the news."
So, while "satire" itself isn't a verb, "satirize" is the verb you can use to express the act of using satire.
