The Rules

...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.

I still can't quite believe people voted for 4 more years of headlines like this

I try to take heart in the fact that the majority didn't actually vote for him, but it's cold comfort, considering so many couldn't be bothered to vote at all.

We're kinda fucked.

The majority of people who actually voted did. Who knows what the rest really think, but at the very least they were fine with this.

We're mega fucked.

Well ackshually! It was a plurality not majority. Not that it actually makes a difference...

Still got less than 50%.

He did get the highest percent, but under half of voters. Still fucking depressing, but as numbers were fully counted and confirmed his percentage steadily decreased.
