is this Bloomberg article serious or tongue-in-cheek?

I can't post the link, but search for "Deeb the Conquerer Bares His Soul Before Mama" on Bloomberg

I don't think I've met anyone who write emails like that. It does make for a good parody, though I dont think Lewis usually posts complete jokes.

It certainly reads like a joke, but none of the commentators seemed to think so when I read the comments. And I don't think Bloomberg View is particularly known for its parody articles.
