    There’s a difference between i) writing a satirical comment that makes an extreme version of an argument to draw attention to the general argument’s flaws and ii) trolling people by continuing to pretend to hold a silly point of view, drawing them into a protracted argument.

    I’d prefer to treat your question as rhetorical.

        Yeah, I thought I did this, and then some guy agreed with me.

          Well I’m glad I made my comment anyway–there are about 20,000 other people on lemmy who would do well to see it. Yay!
