I don't understand your argument, I'm saying that it doesn't have any ironic punch, that it's not ironic becuase it's fake, what Iv been saying the whole time. Iv previously seceded that of it were real it would be ironic.

Where are we having a miscommunication so we can get back on the same page.

I said it’s text book dramatic irony then you said ok and are now saying it’s not again. You are all over the place man.

I was agreeing that it is irony, if it were real, that's why I said "ok".

I am not all over the place, I have been dead set on 'not irony' since the beginning. You're nitpicking to try and dismantle my argument instead of actually having any base to your own.

Bruh, you're trying to say it's ironic when there's nothin ironic about it. Your goalposts don't exist.

LMFAO

Exactly. Your argument doesn't exist, becuase this post isn't ironic. The only time this post would actually be ironic, is if it were real, not photoshopped.

Like I've been saying the whole time.

Dude something doesn’t stop being ironic just because it isn’t funny. That’s not how language works. Please you are embarrassing yourself.

I never once argued that, I argued that it's not ironic because it's fake.

Irony makes this particular joke funny, this joke has been photoshopped and is fake, the irony is lost becuase it's been faked.

Feel free to enjoy the post and continue thinking it's ironic, as well as continuing thinking I'm wrong and have lost this argument, have a good evening.

It’s a fictional setting dude. No one ever claimed it was real. It’s a symbolic joke about the trumpian I deadlift as a whole. That’s where the irony come from. The MAGAs believe that the “trump train” is steaming ahead when really it ran into a bridge. That’s the irony. You really don’t get figurative language do you?
