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!

That man's pedantry is truly beyond parody.
Honestly I think it's just his form of boomer humor. Like he slaps his brain knee. At least it's weird and not like malicious.
Ehhhh sometimes it goes too far. I remember one time he commented after a mass shooting that, uhm ackshually the flu kills more people than mass shootings so why are you all upset? It was pretty offensive.
I wouldn't call it offensive. It's factual. It is insensitive. It's not thinking of those that died and their families.
it'd work if it was just used to point out that WE NEED WELL FUNDED UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE
I would consider it offensive to belittle the murder of children/adults just because diseases kill more people. That's such a smooth brain take, and is honestly something I'd expect to come out of a Republican politician.
Yikes he needs a social media person to clear his tweets
