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, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

America's got a bad habit with this. We already see what happened after the last 20 years of "no child kept behind": now we have Trump.

And that right wing grift reading program that admitted to "look at the picture above the words, and guess" instead of ... teaching phonics and how to actually read.

And social media, and computers, and tv, and video games, and LLMs, and smart phones...the list goes on and on.

Mental abuse is fake woke nonsense!
