He trebled down a year later. I think he is actually trying to be ironic in his bio. But he's still just an idiot.

Wow what a fuckin ass.

I actually thought he was being ironic. I thought, someone who was actually engaging with the allegory enough to acknowledge the correct answer and so quickly—this couldn't have been their first time thinking about it.

This second reply is very confusing if that's true, though.
