"Without a blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of extremism or fundamentalism that someone won't mistake for the real thing." - Nathan Poe

Poe's law, named after its author Nathan Poe, is an Internet adage reflecting the idea that without a clear indication of the author's intent, it is difficult or impossible to tell the difference between an expression of sincere extremism and a parody of extremism.

[Wikipedia]


Yet another bastard child of /r/TumblrInAction, Poe's Law in action is dedicated to those moments of insanity indistinguishable from outright trolling.
