Maybe it's because I'm not from an English speaking country, but the grammar and punctuation seems a bit off to me.

Isn't the Oxford Comma only applicable when listing 3 or more items? (I even googled it to make sure)

1, those who like the oxford comma
2, morons
3, pedants

The Morons part refers to 1 of the 2 groups, and is not a group by itself.

because it's missing the comma

But that would still be problematic.
It can not properly refer to those that like the comma, as interjecting curse words in the middle of a sentence isn't proper English.
Maybe if it had been The morons, I would have accepted that, but simply saying Morons doesn't feel right.

I laughed and went on with my life.
