What's stopping me from deploying sarcasm as a means of poor-faith social manipulation against those who believe that?

I'd love it if everyone was educated with at least some core values to relate to, but we live in this current reality where a dumb-fuck can lure people to Romania by preying on similar social comforts.

Trusting your fellow humans isn't inherently wrong, but people also believe Trump is going to jump-start the rapture. The /s is such a minor addition that costs me almost nothing to deploy and benefits everyone. The negatives to people responding to /s, like getting irrationally upset, are worth it compared to the negatives of assuming everyone has 'common sense', like the methodical social degradation from predators.
