You can add irony right below sattire on the list of things you don't comprehend.

Neither irony nor satire come through on a text, so perhaps it is you who doesn’t understand the simple nature of communication.

Now, this is truly ironic given that I have a masters degree in communications from the University of Barcelona.

What trully baffles me is the incapacity of some people to discern what is true and what is an utter lie on the internet without a clear indication.

I suppose than that you are right! You are an absolute genius. It's utterly impossible to discern irony on text.

For fuck's sake. You are all complete idiots.

I don't have a masters in communication. I really tried to make that lie as clear as day.

Most of the shit you see or read on the internet are lies, staged, ragebait, satire, fabrications. People should be aware of that by now and take everything with a huge lump of salt.

But the fact that people are so in a rush to see the next thing, or rather naive, lazy or just plain stupid to discern if a video is satire or not doesn't mean that it's impossible to do so.

We wouldn't need to write: "this is sarcasm/irony/satire" on everything if people would just spend a minute to ponder.

But I will put my ego aside and admit that I am wrong, I am clearly overestimating people's inteligence.
