Not The Onion

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:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...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!

Yeah and it's also accusing libraries of being drug-infested sex dens

spoiler


It's as if Fox News is not a reasonable source for anything but counterfactual nonsense

If this were true, people would actually go to the library more often!

If libraries were actually drug-infested sex dens, I would hang out in the library more than on Lemmy.

Could you imagine if Fox News found out about Lemmy?

My guess is that the headline would be something like "WOKE NETIZENS TRAIN HACKERS TO TAKE OVER THE INTERNET BY SPREADING WOKENESS"

I mean I always wanted to shag the hot librarian in my hometown but sadly they weren't sex dens back then! 😭

Their lawyers argued in court that they were a source for entertainment, not news.
