Nuance, undertones, rhetorical questions may as well as not exist for some of these good fellows. I must remind myself that even though someone (many someones) might lack in this department, that doesn’t mean they aren’t brighter than me in many other things.
I am curious though. How, if you are aware of this, do you watch spy, palace intrigue, double agent, psychological movies? Isn’t it detrimental to fully enjoy the acting and reading actors expressions and nuances? I guess you wouldn’t be aware that you are missing full experience?

It’s not about me by the way, it is from the perspective of a spectator, a lurker and not about me receiving some kind of response.
It’s not that people are incapable of picking up on nuance, it’s got more to do with it being reeaaally hard to convey tone through text. Like it would be hard to fully grasp all the finer points of a psychological movie if instead of watching the movie, all you had was a text version of the dialogue.
Personally I’m a fan of using an ‘/s’ marker, but inside of a spoiler tag.
OooOoooOooo, a spoiler tag is a really classy way to do it. You must be some kind of GeNiUs!!!

Hopefully my initial malicious sarcasm was obvious, but neutralized by my spoiler /s. I genuinely believe in your method’s classiness.
