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!

It is crazy that the American south is still like this

Tbf there's the South and there's Alabama and Mississippi South.

And Louisiana, sometimes. And Georgia, obviously. Florida.

Texas... Okay, it's the whole South.

But at least that cancer hasn't spread to the Midwestern states!

Ohio checking in.......why do we have confederate flags in northern Ohio? Hell the only thing seperating us from Canada is a god damn lake!!! How much more north can you get???

It's the same across all the Midwest - Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, the Dakotas... I don't even think the Dakotas were states during the Civil War, but there's the loser-traitor flag all over across the upper Midwest.
