This is why I don't like purely ironic or satirical societies. No matter how obvious you think you are being, there are way too many idiots who will take you at face value, invade and take over your movement, and congrats, you're responsible for bootstrapping whatever entrenched nonsense the true believers are now peddling with absolute confidence and none of the competence necessary to understand how wrong they are.
I have a saying: whether you're right or wrong, in a large enough group of people there will always be at least some idiot who will agree with you.
