Yes, I am being honest, because I’ve seen fuck cars people say pretty much identical bullshit, so I honestly don’t know if you’re one of them and are serious, or if you’re taking the piss.
If I was being sarcastic, I would have used an /s tag, like you should have, if you were.
No, the /s tag is an important accessibility feature, and the only way to properly convey tone and intention in writing (the vote ratio on your original comment tells me I’m far from the only person who didn’t get it).
Framing it as an accessibility feature is just citing your own anecdotal experiences and biases, which are meaningless because I have several autistic people in my own social circle who hold my opinion: that the only way to properly convey tone and text is to write properly and read attentively. The right interpretation for what I write is the one I wrote, and if I ever catch myself caring about the Le Epic Updoot Meme Point score on my posts or comments (which I have disabled on my Lemmy app, so I can’t even see it) I will stick a loaded shotgun in my mouth and pull the trigger with my toe.
"Maybe these people wouldn’t be suffering from as much stress and financial hardship if they weren’t carbrained pieces of fucking shit!"
I honestly don’t know if this is sarcasm or genuine.
Do you mean “honestly”?
Hu?
As in, are you really being honest when you say you can’t tell? I think it’s pretty obvious.

The /s tag is a very poor substitute for context clues and common sense. Tone indicators have no place in discourse.
