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!

I don't believe in "cancel culture" anyway. If I have issues with people, be it for their extremistic political views, or because they're just asocial assholes, then I'm obviously not going to bother watching their content, or buy their products, whatever the case may be. That's been just regular people behavior until the US culture war bullshit made a buzzword out of it when people didn't put up with various MAGA people stuffing their beliefs into everyone's face. Skip forward some years later and we reach the hypocrisy of them doing / advocating to do the same thing regarding left leaning people.
The more concerning matter though is just how many people watch not just people who are assholes behind the camera, but in front of it, like all those "pranksters" and whatnot.
