I think it's f***ing hilarious, esp. combined with the "likes" and so on. And no, I am not laughing "at" them. In the course of development, I think people go through phases of experience and at each phase of learning to accept self, think they "know" something in some truthful, universal sense. To me, that's quite funny because it is a deep but temporary ego attachment, which yes ultimately serves as a mirror. (even funnier when prefaced with the royal "we" or "indeed this is so") Eventually that aspect of self must be confronted. Here in 3D we tend to unconsciously use other people for that purpose, due to our laziness at acknowledging catalyst.

It is foolish to move intuitively in a world where reason wrests its reward from all. It is foolish to seek to give the self full of love to those whom you do not know. And yet, my friends, is it not foolish to love the Creator that you have not yet met? Is it foolish to seek the heart of love when love is that force which has created all that is? Is it foolish to walk upon the dusty trail of the seeker of truth when that trail so often seems isolated and alone, yet when explored fully is filled with fellow seekers and pilgrims who walk that same trail and who seek in that same vein to love without end, to give without stint, and to be in harmony with all that there is?...
Yes I am fool indeed and I like it this way.
