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 are we considering the view points of 19-20 year olds who happen to play a sport?
When I was 19-20 and smart enough not to play a sport that scrambles your brain, I did not get a news article in the national press reporting that I did believe in space.
America worships the wrong people.
Worships? Dude... This article is basically making fun of him for being a dumbass. That's the entire story. Dumb fuck said dumb thing.
Not really the point of a news outlet is it?
As I said below the news has always had both big breaking news and stupid little fluff pieces. This is how it is always been.
To generate revenue? No, but here we are.
