A bunch of people up in arms about whether zookeepers should have shot a gorilla is one big joke.
If you saw that, stepped back and said, "this is one big joke," you were one of the smart ones.
On the other hand, if you see a bunch of people talking about how TSA just missed a paycheck, and how they might not show up to work, and how there is no clear contingency plan to keep airports both open and secure, nothing about that is or could be funny.
Now, most issues are somewhere in between with funny aspects and not funny ones.
But few political issues are literally one big joke, and you impoverish your self and others if you you think so.

You fail to get my point, "there aren't any "serious" threads on an anonymous message board." This forum relinquishes it's austerity with its anonymity.
