i am extremely upset by this post. Not because it is fake news presented as fact requiring a click thru to see it is from the onion, —the very reason i block fakenews— but because of the meta crap going on within hexbear.

I'm not fully aware of the nitty and gritty but i sense that it is posted here and in that manner because of the recent fakenews hateposts, whatever mods are having a spat, n such n so on.

its a fucking embarrassing slip for a server that generally conducts itself with more aplomb.

and that's like... leaving aside the fact that that this fakenews is extremely adjacent to real news around the world about real government action attacking trangendered folk. and i don't want to hear your effin excuses, only the most tone-deaf libassed person world refuse to see this point.

whoever it happens to be that needs to hear this? Hear me. hear what I'm saying. see where i and we are coming from. and instead of getting defensive like I'm seeing here, maybe listen to the people who are upset and do some goddamned self crit omg.

[-] Lucien@mander.xyz 28 points 3 weeks ago

Goddamnit, I didn't look at the source. Fucking ban onion posting in non-fakenews coms.

[-] abc@hexbear.net 23 points 3 weeks ago

Gonna have to disagree on this. Keeping Onion posts out of c/news is understandable, but this isn't c/news, it's c/chapotraphouse. This was never a 100% super serious all the time news comm.

I am torn on this. The Onion bits are to close to reality for me to remove them from this comm

[-] abc@hexbear.net 14 points 3 weeks ago

i will do a mod crusade if you start removing Onion posts from this comm because people can't click on a linked article before commenting sunny-rage

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 16 points 3 weeks ago

Another mod removed it, I restored it. The Onion is not at all in the spirit of what the fakenews comm was meant to contain.

[-] abc@hexbear.net 12 points 3 weeks ago

Another mod removed it, I restored it

the people's mod Nakoichi

the other mod is a fascist sorry

@other-mod remove it again

The fake news mod was meant to contain fake news

[-] Dessa@hexbear.net 13 points 3 weeks ago

That's the issue though, isn't it? If people clicked into every link, we wouldn't need a fake news com. But sometimes people don't, and spreading bullshit is still spreading bullshit

I ate the fucking onion rage-cry

[-] OldSoulHippie@hexbear.net 22 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I thought we had a com for this that I've already blocked. Fuck sake.

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 13 points 3 weeks ago

It's the onion come on lol

[-] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 10 points 3 weeks ago

so it's literally fake news?

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 13 points 3 weeks ago

No, it's satire. It's not trying to fool anyone.

Please delete this shit and relegate the onion to fake news ffs. It's not even that people are lazy it's just the principle of the matter. In a comm about y'know real shit the shit should be real.

[-] Z_Poster365@hexbear.net 14 points 3 weeks ago

fake news is only for OC

Onion articles have been posted to this comm hundreds of times throughout the years.

Click and read the article next time and you have nothing to fear. You are all getting upset when you only have yourselves to blame for being lazy consumers of headlines.
