What's the difference between post-irony and new sincerity?

I just saw the former term being applied to Million Dollar Extreme

>Figuring out the intentions of the ironist is easy: whatever is being shown is being mocked. But the post-ironist folds over on his own sincerity with exaggeration, using the ironic not just to ridicule, but also to enjoy the absurdities of what he genuinely appreciates.

Seems to make sense. Is this the typical definition? What's new sincerity?
