parody account

Fake social persona

A parody account is a social media profile that mimics a real person, organization, or fictional character for comedic or satirical effect.

The account adopts the voice and mannerisms of its target while posting exaggerated or absurd content: The parody account tweeted as if the president were a toddler.

Most platforms require parody accounts to identify themselves as such, though the line between parody and impersonation can blur.
