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!

Why?
And what exactly is past self-parody? What comes after that? (Besides 'plaid'.)
Because you can't exaggerate something to make it ridiculous when it's already so ridiculous.
Bad faith communicators like him already take their outrageous rhetoric and false conclusions farther than any funny parody would, effectively making them impossible to humorously satirize.
Please do tell us more about how racism is solved and not an issue anyone would genuinely think needs to be addressed.
I never claimed any such thing, nor would I ever. Do you ever say anything that's NOT about a ridiculous strawman you concocted in your mostly empty head?
And note the "already exaggerated past the point of self-parody" their entire point is in fact exactly that anti-racists are nothing but self aggrandizing attention seekers.
