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

And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
 

Half the school board thinks Keith deserves a third chance (that's right, not his first time making inappropriate comments to a child).

They say only he can decide if he wants to step down. They did vote in favor of censuring him. The rest of the school board members that laughed during the comment and touching of a child faced no repercussion. Some even pretended to be offended during the emergency hearing.

Thank God. I was worried we were going to hold men accountable for once

Hi, man here. I just wanted to say that not all men are like this. But also as a man, I'd like to say there are too many men that ARE like this.

And just so everybody is clear, "too many" is any number above zero.

Yeah but it’s back to the “good ole boy”network here. Not excusing the guy but there are assholes everywhere. However it t makes a huge difference whether their behavior is acceptable or not.

I like to believe that in most places people would be horrified and he would have immediately been discouraged/cesured/sanctioned and never do that again

Hi, man here. Not all men #NotAllMen, some men like me never #NotAllMen. I just need you to know that I'm special in knowing that not all men #NotAllMen, unlike those other men who #NotAllMen, who are the biggest part of the problem that I often accidentally defend by trying to let you know that I'm still fuckable.

He should have his computer confiscated and searched. It's a cinch this fucker has a TB of CSAM in an unencrypted HD just waiting to be found.

Hi, man here as well. We don't need more men apologists.

Hi, man here.

Fuck misogyny and misandry. There is no excuse to be prejudiced.

If you make a habit of punching those adjacent to you, there will be a moment when no one is behind you for anything.

I'm going to continue to advocate for those not in power until the power dynamic switches.
