Not really. Poe's Law just states that extremist positions are often impossible to distinguish from satire. It doesn't say that there's no such thing as satire.

That's why I append my sarcastic posts with /s. It's a habit I picked up on Reddit where you could easily see someone posting that same comment, but being 100% serious. The /s kind of ruins the joke, but I'd rather the joke be ruined than have people think I was serious when I said those kinds of things.

i mean, if people don't know it's satire, it's because it's not satirical, it's just something people actually say.
