            No this is an example where sarcasm and stupidity can’t be distinguished via text alone.

              Would have thought it was an obvious play on the headline, but I accept that sheer stupidity does exist.

              No, it’s obvious to anyone with a brain. If the commenter seriously thought it might have been a false positive when they read the original comment, they never would have relayed their thought the way they did in their reply, and it is so clearly a reference to the content of the post that to analyze it even that deeply is overkill. To anyone reading this who is a native English speaker: if you think that comment needs a “/s”, you need to work on your reading comprehension. Read things more carefully.
