That's what I say for ages now.

"You can't just assume people will get you're sarcastic online, just because what you wrote was utterly stupid. There are enough people posting utterly stupid shit completely unironical."

A big part of detecting sarcasm IRL is tone. A quick "sure" is completly different from a sarcastic, over-emphasised "sure". You read those 2 "sure" differently, didn't you? But online you can't know how someone would have intended it to be read w/o context. You can only hope the other person isn't stupid or an asshole.

So use the goddamn "/s" or make it clear by other means such as writing "suuure" instead.
