Yes, there is, but this doesn't fit there as it is from a fake news site

[–] CommunityLinkFixer@lemmings.world 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !nottheonion@lemmy.world

It really is the best 👌

Babylonbee used to be a right-ish onion. At some point they went off the deep end though

[–] Sharpiemarker@feddit.de 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They've always tried to be the right-wing onion, but failed because they're not funny and they're fascists.

[–] uberkalden@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah maybe I didn't pay enough attention initially. They seemed to swing harder right the past few years, but maybe they've always been that way

[–] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 3 points 1 year ago

Well, Babylon Bee is more of a case of c/TheOnionButRarelyFunny

Why are conservatives incapable of actually good jokes? This is the lowest hanging fruit in the world, but it still just sounds like a Ron DeSantis campaign ad.

[–] Maddison@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

you are right, this is not funny

[–] Candelestine@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I mean, the meme isn't terrible. The actual article though, it literally sounds like it needs that disclaimer at the end the political commercials tend to have.

This isn't a patrician issue. Both parties run geriatrics. Look at Trump.

[–] Candelestine@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Right, but Babylon Bee is well-known conservative "comedy". Well, I don't know how well-known it is, but I knew what it was before I clicked.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Fair, but I didn't even see the url. Even a broken clock is right twice a day. McConnell is another one of those walking corpses.
