Reddit always loves to act like the smartest mother fuckers on earth but you literally cannot be sarcastic without having to SPECIFICALLY denote it with a /s or else you just get flooded in downvotes by dense mother fuckers. But here? I can be as sarcastic as I damn well please and never have to worry about it because I know that people here are smart enough to actually get sarcasm and I don't have to go out of my way to make sure my sarcasm is blatantly obvious

cool and good website

    I saw a reddit comment in /r/politics yesterday that was like,

    I’m sure McConnell has perfectly good reasons for blocking the stimulus vote. He has a pretty good track record of putting the American people first. /s

    Guys I made sure I put the sarcasm in bold so you knew I was being sarcastic with this comment.

      Literally everyone that post in r/politics is either Jennifer Rubin, Liz Warren staffers, Clinton Project staffers, Neera Tanden, one of the pod jons, or one the Lincoln Project guys.

      Or just every employee at MSNBC
