      Nobody knows who you are. And nobody can read the words the way they sound in your head. So if you type exactly what someone that is wrong would type, with no indication that you are doing so ironically, how exactly are people to know that -you- would never say that unironically. There are people that would, and their post would look the exact same.

        But the whole thing is totally absurd. If she’s a criminal then she can’t be a role model, who her husband is should have no bearing on sentencing, inciting violence is obviously a crime…

        Lemmy is also one of the most progressive popular forums in political terms. How often do you see genuine gammons in the comments here?

          If you want to play a person that would get downvoted, without indicating that you are doing so, you are then not in a position to be upset that you got downvoted. Acting irrational and defending the indefensible is a normal thing to encounter on the internet, unironically.

            I guess I just don’t take social media very seriously. Sorry for polluting your feed with shitposting.

            Have a nice day!

              Oh, I wasn’t like being mad or anything. I was just trying to explain what was happening. I’m autistic, so not only have I already learned all these lessons the hard way, but I’m very familiar with being misunderstood and having to make extra effort to explain my jokes.

              Edit: And with the most common way of browsing lemmy, especially as a new user, being to have it set to /all, there are actually alot of instances of a random person showing up with a super unpopular hot take on something they don’t know about.
