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!

It's like he takes fragments of memories and tries to make it a policy suggestion.
Bombing hurricanes was a theory in the atomic age and became an urban legend.
During a COVID briefing, he read a poster about how to disinfect surfaces and thought they would make suitable treatments.
With the electric aircraft thing he probably saw a tweet about NASA's Pathfinder and made a ton of assumptions about electric aircraft.
It's an incredibly stupid way to operate as someone who wants to lead the creation of policy.
He's an incredibly stupid man, so that makes sense.
And you just believe this headline, no critical thought on that front?
“What happens if the sun isn’t shining while you’re up in the air?”
A quote from Donald J. Trump.
Did you just disregard the article based on only the headline?
