????? Explain what? Yeah submarine sounds kinda like subhuman as well. Shakes head disapprovingly at marine biologists
It's probably not intentional by NEO, but the triple parenthesis in the context here does seem a bit sus.
Looks to me like Zionist vs crypto-fash infighting.
There is no triple parentheses. Did you actually look, or are you going off comments about it?
Triple " is frequently used the same way so much so that I mistakenly said parentheses in my comment instead of triple quotations.
When someone argues that you are conflating things, and then you conflate them in your response, pointing to that conflation does not work as a data point against that you're conflating them. It doesn't automatically make you wrong, either, but it doesn't help your case.
They completely edited that comment, by the way. It did not read anything like that. It originally said something like "triple quotations are used as a dogwhistle". So they were adamant even after making the mistake.
You're not wrong I was just pointing out that within the context I have certainly seen it used like that and I usually just use single " and let the context make the sarcasm clear. Didn't mean to start an argument and def not defending goat. Just looks like everyone in that thread sucks.
I don't think that always works. We probably wouldn't need /s if it did.

Also fair
i think most of the time that's a skill issue on the part of sarcastic poster.
we also have sPoNgEbOb case as a more elegant indicator if necessary
No they are not. You wouldn't have to be calling them "parentheses". Multiple quotes are used to indicate sarcastic use or criticism of the use of a word.
Idk I'm not invested in this I have 100% seen it used that way.
Impeccable time waste, thank you.
