Nope. Do not pre-comply with fascists.

You can't taste the sarcasm in my comment? For real?

Y'all are fucking dense.

Jokes are supposed to be funny.

I just assumed that it was part of the original joke...

Right hand to gay Jesus, I was literally coming into this thread to type out the exact same thing. Except my comment wouldn't have had the italics or newline because according to my therapist I'm lazy and lack curiosity so I wouldn't have spent the time or even had the inclination.

Two new lines to make a new paragraph.
Or two empty spaces and one "return" at the end of the previous line to make it just a new line, not a new paragraph.

Good for poetry.
Or song lyrics.

Italics, just get wrapped in asterisks, like *this*.

The reason I can type it out like this so you can see it is because I "escaped" the asterisk, by putting a backslash (\) before it.

That backslash in the last paragraph was placed between two back ticks, `like this`, to make it appear in a fixed-width font, like this. Good for code or CLI commands.
