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!

If you’re talking to an audience it might be easier to refer to a fictional character and say the actor of it rather than say the actor’s name
Example: saying Tom Hiddleston supports you might have people not know who that is. Saying the actor who played Loki might reach a larger audience
Lmao my god you’re just tripping over yourself to make excuses for Trump.
Your example is absolute bullshit. He didn’t say “the actor who played Hannibal Lecter” now did he? He called him Hannibal Lecter. You apologists always give yourselves away because you ignore what he actually said and start substituting it with what you wish he would’ve said instead because it sounds less stupid.
Yes he did say the actor for Hannibal Lecture in Silence of the Lambs
That’s why this article is bad and the Twitter comments that they included saying he thinks a fictional character supports him are bad
What excuses are there?
I have a feeling boobies don't like you
Why?
