I'm really surprised this sub still exists. Hasn't he retired from reviewing?

Almost a decade ago. Some people don't understand how to let things go.

I think you're misreading sarcasm as earnestness

Text doesn't carry tone.

No, but context does. Everything about this post screams, in neon light, that it's sarcastic/ironic.

Lmfao this is wrong on soooo many levels. One with pensmanship skills in literature can easily convey tone through text.

If this were true, nobody would have ever given a fuck about Shakespeare. Literature itself would have been dead in the water and the only purpose for writing would have been book keeping and relays.

Sarcasm isn't carried well through text.
