parent post sounds like sarcasm to me.

If so, my bad that I didn't get it.

In any case it was not very sarcastically phrased. And given the bullshit people believe nowadays such things really need to be called out.

I have to agree that the sarcasm was really hard to figure out in this one. I didn't see it either.

In any case, next time this happens, I recommend that you just respond with the classic, "[citation needed]".

My apologies, I'm an Australian, and anything that an Australian says should be assumed to be sarcastic until proven otherwise.
In that case: Please accept my apologies.

I really took your comment at face value. It's just that the current trend of Obama being a muslim terrorist sympathizer, Hillary Clinton running a child porn ring out of a pizza parlor and other such utter shit (and a significant amount of people actually believing that) makes me want gnaw off the wall paper.

Mea culpa!
