    Women are the most hated people the world over. No advantages, only downsides. Any man to ever walk the earth can never experience the equivalent horrors of being despised as much as a woman.

    Edit: /s. Do people seriously think this way?

      I can’t tell if this is an example of Poe’s law or why it’s a thing.

        It was supposed to be hyperbolic and sarcastic, but it looks like such beliefs can actually be held.

          Sarcasm and hyperbole are two of my favorite things, but Poe’s ls is a real thing.

          Without a clear indicator of intent, it’s impossible to distinguish snark from extremism
