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!

the thing is if they solve the real stuff the don't have anything to campaign next time
(this work for all parties)
Really? What is the current moral panic of the Democrats?
I'm personally unhappy with arms being sent to Israel workout approval of shitbox Congress (no typo), and how bad housing and food prices have gotten.. But not really a panic, those are very real things.
Not this anti-furry shaming bullshit. What a waste of people's time for something hurting nobody.
Almost as dumb as that (both sides) argument.
The high cost of living isn't a moral panic. The satanic panic, the satanic messages in rock music panic, the drag queen story time panic, and the furry litter box panic are moral panics.
Indeed, that's why I never once mentioned being in panic 😉
That's interesting since the question was specifically about moral panics.
Being nonsensical: a human attribute. Thanks for your comment 😊
The potential death of democracy is probably pretty forefront, but they certainly don't focus on it enough.
