Is the kind of cynicism he was criticizing still an issue? Ironic hipster subculture doesn't exist anymore, young people who want to be edgy are all terminally online now and involved in different flavors of performative political radicalism. We went from "ugh, nothing matters" to "uwu i just wuv licking my wounds wif my suppowtive discord frens" without stopping somewhere in the middle of the spectrum. Irony is still around, but it's not poisoning people like toxic positivity and woke narcissism are.
I like sincerity as much as the next guy, but it seems to me that people who complain about "irony poisoning" are ten years behind the curve, at least.

If you admit that it only loosely determines intelligence then why are you defending it all? The ability to solve sudokus also loosely determines intelligence but I don't think anyone believes it should be considered as the standard way of doing so.

You guys realize that there are people with limb disphoria that literally believe they were born with arms and legs that they don't need. Do you know what doctors do to these patients, right? They certainly don't saw off their limbs. They're treated, medicated, and assimilated back into normal society.
