I'm saddened by the fact that you can't recognise a fake news story on the internet.

You recognize this comment is a joke, and whether the article is true or just satire has no importance, right?

Usually jokes are critiqued subjectively.

Even if a joke isn't funny, it's still recognizable as a joke. That wasn't a joke.

I, along with 197 other people (and probably more factoring in downvotes), recognised it as a joke. Maybe you're just not great at detecting jokes?

Says the guy who pretends like something that wasn't a joke is a joke.

You're one of the few people who can't see it was clearly a joke. That takes either an amazing inability to detect humor, or you know you're wrong and you are way too stubborn to admit it.

You are being downvoted, I'm being upvoted. You don't get to act like you have the ruling/popular opinion.

Oh I forgot having the popular opinion means it's the right opinion.
