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....
