>you cant even make a light hearted thread on /q/ without it being deleted
I'll add that we've always filed "ironic shitposting" (posts that mockingly imitate the mannerisms of a given target; especially when invoking Poe's law; especially when intended to insult/enrage all or specific Heyuri users rather than make them laugh) under Rule 8 ever since we've had a Rule 8

It used to be explicitly listed under Rule 8, but in 2022 we had a ton of n00bs who were unfamiliar with the term (plus we'd decided the term "shitposting" itself was somewhat Rule 8-breaking), so it was reworded in the spur-of-the-moment to "Posts intended to annoy or enrage other users without even having the decency to provide LOLs" - which I'll admit, as teh one who originally wrote it, isn't much clearer
