There is no longer any belief that is so outrageous that you can't find many people that genuinely hold it. Plain text is bereft of the unconscious social cues that could get around that problem, so there is no way to tell sarcasm just through print.
You're not 100 percent wrong. But if something is so ludicrous that you cant possibly imagine a person actually saying it, it should be obvious that it is sarcasm (assuming youre reading it in your native language).
Also, you talk about social cues, right? What about deadpan comedy? There are 0 social cues. The jokes are spoken exactly the same as when they speak regular dialogue.
But really my main point was "I dont know if the people on this site are dumber than, as smart as, or smarter than the people on reddit". Because reddit is filled with so many pseudointellectual virtue signaling shit bags and the moderation is a joke. I got permabanned for crossposting a text post from one subreddit about a specific topic, to another subreddit about the exact same topic. I read every single rule on the main site and both subs after the ban and I didnt violate any. So I wasnt sure if I NEEDED to point out the obvious sarcasm, because as I said, no matter how obvious it is, some people are too stupid to see it.
Anyway I appreciate the intelligent well written response. That's already a step up from redshit.
This is a corollary to Poe's Law.
