Poe's law is an adage of Internet culture which says that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.

So which is it, @kahoodd@reddthat.com: parody, sincerity, or “ha ha only serious”?
