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!

Political correctness. This guy inherently implies that following the law and not committing crimes is too woke. Bros, is it gay to not commit an assault and battery at least once a day?

What a clown.

Hell yeah that's gay! In the best possible way. -meant as a statement that would likely irk this new generation of right wing politicians.

It isn't super helpful that I think this way, but I get a kick out of idiots having the bravado to say this kind of stuff without having any inkling that they are the problem.

Just roll around in a chain link hexagon with another mostly naked dude for a few hours. It’ll straighten you right out.

Man... Being a cis white male is too hard these days. Maybe I should transition or something.
