I feel like this statement is enough in question that I'd want to put it through some kind of quasi-empirical test before making the claim.
If we can ditch the Toilet Paper USA logo (maybe put the real Turning Point logo on it) and spread it around some conservative internet spaces, and record the responses, we might be able to find out for sure. But my hypothesis is that conservatives, as a general rule, are incapable of recognizing satire or parody.
