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!

The lawmakers pushing this should have their browsing history and message logs examined by a team of data recovery experts.

I can assure you, they are into some weird shit but they spout these bullshit platitudes about turning others away from sin. It's almost certainly because they are embarrassed or insecure about their own desires.

John Oliver was doing something like that around a piece about data brokers:

It was wonderful.

The lawmakers proposing this... We should bring back tar and feathers.
