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:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...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!

I wouldn't pejoratively call a mute person dumb, a mobility device user lame, or an intellectually disabled person retarded
but I will absolutely call cringe political fanatics lame, dumb retards
also here's some free fag-passes from your friendly internet dyke, cuz "fag" is a great fuckin multipurpose word
This is like saying “When I say ‘that’s gay’, I don’t mean gay as in homosexual, I mean gay as in stupid”.
Tom Segura nailed it.
