No, it's more ironic.

An oxymoron is the inclusion of what are ordinarily mutually exclusive words or terms in the same phrase.....jumbo shrimp, military intelligence, honest coach, etc.

The title of the thread could be considered as containing an oxymoron, but the fact it is such a long thread, isn't.
