Raw Literature · Public Record

Imprint

Every circus keeps paperwork. The law, in its infinite tenderness, asks that a name be attached to all of this — a person, an address, a place to send the strongly worded letters. Here it is: the who, the where, and the precise extent to which any of it is our fault.

Letters of admiration and legal threats go to the same inbox. Both are read with equal ceremony.

§ 02

Responsible for Editorial Content

Responsible for the editorial content of Raw Literature and all of its imprints: [Christian Langebck Santos & Santiago Ospina Vargas], Editors-in-Chief, reachable at the address above. The editors have read your complaint. The editors have heard worse.

§ 03

The Imprints of the House

Raw Literature is the house. It publishes under three imprints, all answerable to the same desk:

Samsara News

Satirical news. Its articles are works of fiction and commentary; any resemblance to journalism is a literary device. What the world offered us to tell you last week.

Political Samsara

Editorial cartoons. Public figures appear here as caricature, parody, and political commentary.

The Literary Desk

Poetry, essays, and short stories in English, Spanish, and French. The one imprint where we occasionally mean it.

§ 04

The Satire Notice

Unless expressly marked otherwise, everything published under Samsara News and Political Samsara is satire: exaggeration, parody, invented quotation, and caricature aimed at public figures acting in public roles. No statement of fact is intended, and none should be inferred. The full clause, stamped and framed, lives in our [Terms & Conditions].

§ 05

Liability for Content

These pages are built with care. Still, satire moves faster than fact-checkers, and to the extent the law permits us to say so, we accept no liability for the completeness, accuracy, or timeliness of the material published here. Our obligations under general law remain untouched: notify us of a concrete legal violation and we will review it and, where required, remove it. Outrage alone is not a violation. Outrage is the product.

§ 06

Liability for Links

This site links outward. Those pages belong to other people, and their operators are responsible for them. Every link was checked when it was placed; we do not control the internet, and neither does anyone else. If a linked page has since gone rogue, write to us and we will cut the rope.

§ 07

Copyright & Reprints

© [2024]–2026 Raw Literature. The cartoons, articles, poems, and assorted provocations on this site are original works protected by copyright. Short quotations with attribution and a link are welcome — that is how reputations are built. Anything more (reprints, translations, syndication, classroom use, tattoo reference) requires written permission: raw@rawliterature.com. Third-party material is marked as such. Caricatures of public figures are original works of parody, not endorsements — theirs or ours.

§ 08

Disputes

The European Commission operates an online dispute resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board. We prefer our disputes the traditional way: in the letters section.
