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.”

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!

This is getting out of hand

I think this is a bit beyond just "getting out of hand". US is now few steps away from outright having a Ministry of Truth and a lot of media are actually going along with it voluntarily.

If you told me this would happen even a month ago, I would have probably laughed at you.

Been that way for a while, and will only likely get worse.
