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.

goddamnit

Boys named Sue in shambles, probably should invlude [the onion] in the title, its a little too real

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.

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.

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

[-] Aceivan@hexbear.net 17 points 2 days ago

some dipshit decided to make the rules on that one say OC only. admins should probably just step in and change that lmao

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 13 points 2 days ago

It's the onion come on lol

[-] OldSoulHippie@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

No. I will not "come on". For a site that bends over backwards for neurodiverse people, there sure is a lot of pushback by people being like "it's just a prank bro"

Fuck that

so it's literally fake news?

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 13 points 2 days ago

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

I ate the fucking onion rage-cry

[-] abc@hexbear.net 23 points 2 days ago

WAOW this sub is awful fake news everywhere....

[-] Lucien@mander.xyz 28 points 2 days ago

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

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 18 points 2 days 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.

[-] abc@hexbear.net 23 points 2 days ago

Goddamnit, I didn't look at the source.

your fault - read the article next time before commenting lea-smug

You'd think with their recruiting numbers in the red and their weird hard-on for even more war as entire the torrent that will be climate catastrophe they'd be treating this shit like Starship Troopers and taking whomever they can get.

The Onion's comedic track record is untouchable. W's for 20+ years.
