I don't get it, is this a joke?

There is already a crap-ton of SO2 in Venus's atmosphere (about 40 teratonnes, to be precise), that's where the sulfuric acid clouds come from. If we sent a supertanker full of SO2 to Venus every single day for a thousand years we wouldn't affect the amount of SO2 in the atmosphere by even 1%.
