The NYT reports that New York Magazine website went off-line hours after posting a story featuring 35 women who have accused the comedian Bill Cosby of sexual abuse and the article was inaccessible on Monday morning. "Our site is experiencing technical difficulties. We are aware of the issue, and working on a fix," the magazine posted to its main Twitter account early Monday morning.
A user called Vikingdom2016 claimed responsibility for a DOS attack on the site and said the attack was based on a hatred for New York, and was not related to the cover that features Mr. Cosby's accusers. As the website remained off-line, editors were working to find other ways to publish the piece, which the magazine said took six months of work.
On Monday morning, the magazine began posting audio related to the cover article on Instagram. The story is available at Web.Archive.Org's Wayback Machine.

Just how far do you have to be on the spectrum to make a capitalization flame?
Just how far do you have to be on the spectrum to misinterpret a joke post about TLAs as a "capitalization flame"?

It's not really a good joke if you need to explain it just after telling it.

The only thing funny about that post is that you thought it would be funny.
My guess is that you are just trying to save face by calling it a joke post now that its been pointed out to you how stupid it was.
