I was under the impression that it was sarcasm.  Whenever something gets
posted a or a code of conduct that comes down to don't be a jerk is
adapted, there's lots of people who feel their right to be jerks has been
infringed.  I could easily be wrong but I thought that post was making a
about why such codes of conduct become necessary.

Could be, I'm autistic and often completely miss what other people claim 
was obvious sarcasm. But sometimes what I think they might claim was 
obvious sarcasm based upon past experience it wasn't.

That's why /sarcasm or other indications really should be used, not all 
minds work the same and it isn't fair to assume they should.

It?s possible to make this point without doing what that person did.  Calling
women c*nts even sarcastically, nope.

That is, of course, as opposed to the people who *are* obnoxious jerks,
who, when a ton of manure falls on them, they claim it was "just in
fun".
