It's obviously impossible that could be faked. I mean an image of a text document? There's no way!

Mere emojis are insufficient to convey how much I'm rolling my eyes.

Can it also ignore useless and untrustworthy content created by humans as well? There's a lot of that around as well.

I'd vote for the 1 day work week.

"We have propaganda news on our side just as the left does"

Greene claimed that since Carlson was fired from "neocon network Fox News, he has more popularity and viewers than ever before" and that "he unapologetically believes the same things I do."

Yeah, nah.

Except he's just the front man.

It's insane that it wasn't required from the start.

Shame they didn't show up in November last year.

Part of the problem I have with this form of interaction is that every comment exists in isolation. There's no identity behind them. If we knew you, and were familiar with your posting history and thoughts, we'd probably pick the sarcasm straight away, but without actually going and checking, and who has the time to do that for every comment, we can only take the words in front of us at face value.

I generally find it easier to assume someone is joking when making such comment on Lemmy than on Reddit, which has, let's call it a broader audience, but we can't know for sure, and there's a lot of looneys or there that do genuinely believe such idiocy.

As such, subtle sarcasm can be misinterpreted as a genuine opinion. In those cases, it's better to make the sarcasm as unsubtle as possible. The /s is a bit crude, but there's plenty of creative ways to express it.

Flooded the zone while the crooks in charge continue to rob the country blind?
