If this chain of posts is a joke, I don’t think I get it. If it’s not, I am mildly amused.
I think it’s a meta-joke. Incorrect is a hyper-contrarian arguing about how many contrarians there should be :)
Not only that, but in an uninformative and confrontational manner, posing the problem of how to respond to generate better contrarianism.
TimS is encouraging people to be more contrarian, so Incorrect is disagreeing with him.
contrarian != willing to intelligently disagree with consensus
I’m not joking, but it’s pretty clear Incorrect is. I’m not amused, but the joke is basically at my expense, so that’s not very good evidence of whether Incorrect was actually amusing.

Speaking as one who often upvotes bad jokes...
No.
For clarification, I only upvote good bad jokes.
