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

And that’s basically it!

Let’s not pretend that this is somehow wrong, as if it’s not our reality. CNN can fucking die for all I care, but this is an indictment on the American voter, and richly deserved.

Let's not blame the American voter who has been fed garbage and been brainwashed and not taught about proper civic engagement. The system is working as intended.

CNN should just turn itself off

Does this matter? I think we should lose the mock outrage over this and instead have actual outrage for things that we should be outraged over.

Here's a good one: Corecivic and Geo group donated big time to Trump.

ICE detention facilities are run as for profit enterprises by Corecivic and Geo group.

Our tax dollars are fed into a system that has a perverse incentive to "detain" as many people as possible as Corecivic and Geo group get paid for each detained person...
