Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
Devils advocate for the heck of it. Gonna be submerged in bad rep for this.
This is comparative to people wearing "I can't breathe" signs after Floyd or waving a pride flag to show solidarity. You just give them shit because you do t agree with them.
Sure they are all fucking stupid for not seeing the obvious flaws in their idol. But giving them shit for a pretty rational way of showing support to their idol is not the right use of your energy.
You are participating in the fragmentation of your nation by pouring your hate into simple stuff like this.
For all I care go ahead. I'm European.
Laughing at idiots is never not the right use of my energy, thank you very much.
I'll feel guilty about it when it isn't fascists I'm fragmenting out of my country. If anything, I'm proud to make those fucks uncomfortable in my country.
