Wow, I had no idea, I thought people in the same country were the same person?

Now when we've both shaken off our much pent in sarcasm, what would you say to them?

I think there is a communication issue - the parent is not using sarcasm.
"They" don't exist. There are no Russians who replied to me in any manner when I said "You need to just overthrow your government" because I never said such a thing to anyone. Nothing I said was sarcastic, it was all meant to be taken extremely literally. You're trying to catch me out as a hypocrite but I didn't do what you said I did.
