Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

wat?
There was a truck full of hostile monkeys infected with hepatitis, herpes, and covid that crashed and they all got loose. Happened yesterday or so. Some may still be on the loose.
Unfortunately they were not infected with anything. The local sheriff just made that bit up.
The facility does house infected monkeys, but these had not yet been infected and were being relocated to a different facility
🙉
RFK's health department pretty much ensured they all have polio, cholera and COVID-38 by now
is COVID-38 from 13 years in the future or are we just versioning it like web browsers now?
Welcome back, Rush Limbaugh.

Life imitates art, again.
Except there literally wasn’t. It was fake news.
I thought the police shot them all except one?
I'm not really sure, the article I read said 3 were still on the loose, but also said only 1 was on the loose still.
The whole thing is a masterpiece example of people not letting reality get in the way of a good story. Nothing happened but a few local news outlets uncritically repeated one incorrect initial sentence from a cop and the national media went absolutely bonkers with the story before it was fact-checked.
