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

And that’s basically it!

Ohhhh nononono, I agree that those in power have far MORE blame, but at what point do you call a dangerous idiot caught up in propaganda dangerous?

No matter how you feel about them, they WILL kill you for disobeying. At what point does a useful idiot become an enemy combatant?

People that embrace teachings wholly counter to what they are supposed to believe should bare guilt. They should not be forgiven if they go on to make the world a worse place simply for being an ignorant fool.

They can be forgiven AFTER they change their ways. Until then, they are a brainless tool being actively used by evil people.
