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!

MODERATORS
The authorities failed to mention any specific broadcast that prompted their decision. However, on Wednesday, several Western outlets reported that jihadists had killed 90 soldiers and at least 40 civilians in Chatoumane in Niger’s Tera region near Burkina Faso.
Niger’s leadership denied the attack had occurred, labeling the reports “baseless assertions” and a “campaign of intoxication.”
Intoxication? Do they mean indoctrination?
Maybe they mean something like slander?
Yeah, I have a feeling that joke went right over your head.
Nah, you're below me if anything if your attitude is any indication
Yes, you're probably right. I'm a degenerate but at least I'm aware of it.
I thought that said Nigel (as in Nigel Farage) and my mind went on a rollercoaster
Well, that would certainly be something
don't we say "homie" now ?
Niger, please.
P.S.: I like using the French pronunciation IRL to forestall any confusion.
