In this thread we get to see which usernames display an inability to detect very obvious satire.

I would laugh, but I've met too many people who either adore busywork or worse - seem to think no amount of additional manual stuff that one has to do will ever be a problem.

I laughed twice: once while reading the article, the second time reading people getting mad at the author in the comments!

Presumably there are also people who simply disagree with the message being delivered through the satire... ?

... Or conclude that the message is contradictory such that it's basically just trolling?

A lot of them, it seems

Honestly it needed an LLM to tell me that it is satire, because I tuned out at the 20% mark.

The author seems to be so deep in the radioactive weeds that even if it is satire and they're distancing themself from it, they're still likely to already have experienced a near-lethal dose.

Worded differently, I would argue that anyone who sees this and _understands it_ is stuck in something very unhealthy and needs to get out very fast. Using this level of satire as a coping mechanism just prolongs what shouldn't be prolonged (or exist in the first place).
