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

What niche of a niche? Reddit is pretty mainstream now.

[–] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Everywhere?

The whole idea of leftism is to deconstruct hierarchical power structures.

mega corps are the current incarnation of exactly that.

Ideals aren't the same as action

[–] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

Fair, fully agree there.

What do you mean where? It's literally in the name.

lol…. Yeah. I’ll bet those protests are really hitting them hard. People shouting at buildings have always been historically successful!

Pray-tell, I remember back when Vietnam ended just because people yelled at a bank in my home town. So proud of those kids!
