The claim is a major departure for the service, which has long been known as a destination for posting short snippets of text.

That also doesn't make much sense as a reply.

Man, get those neurons checked. If you think the initial comment wasn't sarcasm, you need. to go and read the definition.

[–] ripcord 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It absolutely wasn't "sarcasm".

[–] platypus_plumba -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

OK, maybe it wasn't sarcasm in the traditional sense, but it was clearly not something pro-Musk, which is why most dumbasses are downvoting.

[–] ripcord 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

No, it wasn't sarcasm in any sense.

[–] platypus_plumba 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I like how you completely ignored the other aspect of what I said. It says a lot about who you are and how you debate.

[–] ripcord 1 points 10 months ago

I didn't care about the other aspect you were trying to steer to.

But also no, the downvotes we're because the comment was stupid. Then you tried to lie about "sarcasm" and how other people were too stupid to get it, which got you a bunch more.

I don't really care about the personal attacks you're trying to make. But blocking you, since you seem like a child lashing out when called out, and it's worthless.
