I can't tell if this is a "my brain" problem or a problem for most people to a similar extent
Do you think one of those dentist tools that blows a sharp stream of air into the meatus of a peen could block cum coming out? Asking for a friend.
Usually if I know and recognize them and they're not usually like that, it's a bit
Otherwise assume it's not a bit, unless that gives you too much psychic damage I guess
Idk don't ask me, I'm autistic and I get it wrong a lot
Double irony bit, pretend like you don't get the irony but sincerely agree with them.
The only way is to have greater context for all of the things a person has posted, but generally I assume everything is a bit because otherwise I would :foucault-madness:
In my personal life, it depends on if it tracks with their previous beliefs or not. Like... I have a lot of very progressive LGBTQ friends that make gay jokes that if, say, a republican senator made I'd probably judge waaaaay more harshly. Totally isolated from context though, I have no idea.
It's generally a tone and context thing. Also every bit I have ever done was to communicate a sincere belief whether by just stating it with a joke or mockingly claiming a belief I disagree with.
Jokes are based on assumptions and carry semantic payloads. It being a joke doesn't mean they don't mean it and that it is above criticism for what it's saying. People generally do understand this but often pretend not to to make a point
take as an example bullying if I made a joke about someone being a worthless idiot I would be actually calling them an idiot and using a joke to do so. Or if someone joked about Jewish people being greedy that would be actual antisemitism that coincidentally takes the form of a joke
Why do you need to know? Life is more exciting with a little mystery in it.
Some people naturally view that mystery as a big receptacle that you fill up with anxiety
Some anxiety is reasonable when you dont have a lot of social capital and want to retain access to social resources.
But also, guilty as charged.
