2. Notoriously, those of neurodivergence tend not to get irony
3. Irony poisoning. I think it is not from sliding into poisoning per say, but the recipient most likely didnt not understand the original intentions of the joke

>neurodivs 7 to 9 times likely to identify as lgbt compared to neurotypical
I think during the ironic jokes from 2000-2010s these refuse took seriously thus leading to the lgbt boom
3a. Besides neurotypicality wouldnt be suprised if different brain proportions also played a role in flipping or not understanding irony
I dont really think irony poisoning exists since the signs were probably most likely there
