Yeah see, I don’t care for genocide. Genocide is not very cash money at all. So, see, in opposition to genocide, I’m gonna sit over here have a preference for a different not cash money genocide, you know, not really but yeah. Oh, and I’ve read accounts of war. I can handle it, I’m well read on the topic. Blood, guts, spit, and ass aren’t that scary. With all of my experience reading about war, I’m practically a shell shocked WWI vet anyway, hehe.

Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about?

I’m absolutely shocked that my comment calls for a /s.

Like, have things got so bad that obvious satire isn’t obvious anymore?

You must be new here.

"President stares directly at Sun" isn't satire anymore.

Ok, yeah. Haha. What a moment that was. God bless former president (hopefully forever) Donald J. Trump. Haha.

Yes, they have. I took it as satire but I can easily see people actually believing it.

Hell, just yesterday there was a guy still arguing that masks didn't really make a difference for COVID. That improved hygiene, lock downs/isolation, and social distancing was what made all the difference.

I then made a comparison to seat belts, airbags, and bicycle helmets and he then made arguments against those too. I just left the "conversation" at that point. I'm really hoping it was just a bot. The responses were pretty long.

It was pretty obvious to me, but I've certainly missed /s before, so....

Don't worry I understood your comment was satire but honestly it's not far off from the tankie I was arguing with.
