I'm really not saying "everyone should know this is parody", because it's possible for smart people to miss the point of anything sometimes. The clues here are pretty obvious, but if you're skimming, you might miss them and just think this is normal BenG shit. (My main clue that stopped me from scrolling is that this doesn't quite look like his art style.)
What I do think, however, is that people should apply a filter before jumping into the comments with stuff like "this is beyond parody". No, this is actually parody. Someone thought about the fact that it might be parody but was so committed to their first impression that they didn't scratch any deeper.
