Hmm, I wonder if it is actually. I think it’s just a euphemism for it’s wrong how" or “it’s weird how we as people keep allowing this to happen in a democratic world”, but I honestly don’t think it’s sarcasm.
I get the point and I write that way all the time too, but I thought to see what happens if I just stop participating in the pretense of it being weird.
But yes maybe it is just sarcasm, but like the same sort of rhetoric is often used to talk about problems which are sort of too complex and large to easily assert something which should or even could be done.
I don’t see how pretending that’s weird is gonna help anyone.
We all know we don’t live in a just world.
We need to try and make it one, instead of pretending we’re living in one which happens to have horrid injustice happening all the time.
I’m no English major, but I’m pretty sure @SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world calling it weird is a rhetorical device known as sarcasm.

But yes. Sarcasm.
