      You can’t taste the sarcasm in my comment? For real?

      Y’all are fucking dense.

        Unfortunately there are too many people who dog whistle online. When they are called out, they claim they were sarcastic or trolling and “why can’t you take a joke?”. It can make many of us quite reactive to it.

        Given how much of today’s political hell grew out of “jokes”, it’s akin to walking into a veteran’s PTSD support group and firing off a cap gun. There are grounds where it could be a funny prank, but it’s 100% on you to not cross the line.
