    Cool info. If you were going for a copypasta type thing you nailed it.

        I’ve noticed that over the top satire tends to be taken entirely at face value on lemmy. Doesn’t mean I’ll ever stop posting it, but I have noticed it. Also, demographics run much younger than most seem to believe.

          And sometimes it’s taken as both, to be laughed at, and commented on.

            See, that makes perfect sense to me. Satire is meant to be taken as a talking point in the overwhelming majority of cases. I’m happy when the message I put out is extrapolated on, but upset when the conversation immediately dies at “no, that’s a silly interpretation.”

        This copypasta has done so much more to inform people about GNU than any somewhat reasonable piece of writing could ever have done.
