    Okay but it’s 1000x more likely they were making a joke so why are you acting like they being serious was the most likely option?

      I didn’t make any commentary about how likely one or the other is, I just said ‘some people genuinely believe these things’. I don’t know them, I don’t know you, what I do know is that there are people out there that actually believe this stuff and actually send their kids to them all because they had the nerve to answer back.

      You’re right, it’s far more likely they’re a sane person being sarcastic, but Poe’s law is a very real thing. Because some people actually sound like this.

      I’m not the one acting like it’s one way or another, I just said ‘some people genuinely believe these things’.

      You’re the one acting like I’m on the attack when I’m not.
