People taking shit at face value and not understanding it’s a joke/satire is exactly why misinformation is so rampant right now

Yeah okay, but I didn’t see that it was in a shit posting community because I was scrolling through ALL, and others seemingly didn’t either.

  I’m not sure why that is anyone’s fault but yours. There is no way to force you to pay attention to the fact that you’re in a shitpost community.
