What plays into what you said is people getting overly butthurt about opinions and taking themselves to serious. I feel like sometimes people think that I am sarcastic but will take it seriously, because if I was serious and they would take it as sarcasm, it would lead to a more awkward situation than vice versa. I hate that. Even if Im serious, if you think my opinions are funny, just laugh about them. As long as a serious debate is not interrupted by constant memes, I see no problem with laughing about another once in a while.
