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!

From the article:

Of course he’s famous and sought-after — he’s a Trump. People would book Eric as a clown at their kid’s birthday party if he wasn’t so afraid of being his true self. Everyone wants to be close to a famous person, and people who want to curry favor with Donald Trump will say any manner of sweet nothings about his children.

ETA: although I chuckled at the above statement, this author is biased as shit. All his articles are nothing but Reddit-style fan service and exhaustively regurgitated comments. He even perpetuates the couch fucker lie in other articles. Everything reads like he's trying to make the best joke in order to get his karma numbers up.

Even though I lean left, I wouldn't trust anything this guy has to say and would do extra research before I took it seriously.

He could be the next Pee Wee Herman!
