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.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content 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!

They know exactly what they're doing, it's a "purification," not entirely dissimilar to the same that happened in the 1930s in Germany.

I think most people realise. It's still really fucking dumb

Oh, no, they're dumb as a bag of bricks. Dumbest Nazis of all time. AI just makes them dumber.

Nononono! They're super-smart! Even when everything they do looks exactly what an incredibly stupid person would do that's just because they're playing 1000D chess! They've thought of everything so we should all just give up and accept their rule.

When nobody stands up to stop the fascists, yes.

not at all. trying to eliminate gay people from history, and also a nice convenient moment to sweep some war crimes under the rug

People like this don’t think it was wrong

they're not who they're manufacturing consent from. it's the ~55% of people who apparently listen to nothing but spotify and watch nothing but entertainment
