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

And that’s basically it!

My dad used to removed about immigrants taking jobs, but would swing by Home Depot to grab some Mexicans whenever he needed extra hands on a construction project. Conservatives are just hypocritical morons.

EDIT: Wow, this place bans the no-no synonym for the word "complains"? What in the seven nanny hells is that.

typical lemmy.ml

it's one of the "bad" instances alongside grad, hexbear, and (to a lesser extent and in a different way) .world

Everybody can run a Lemmy server. That includes people who do not know the Scunthorpe problem.

I can say "bitch" just fine btw

Isn't the Scunthorpe Problem when something gets unintentionally blocked? This seems very intentional.

Well I am a bit new to this but I guess I will find a new server if they are going to police my speech like that.

Yup. They have to protect everyone from words cause that is really what causes all the problems of the world and language never adapts over time unless you force it too apparently.

Crazy that the site designed just like reddit turns out to be just like reddit.

[–] Ravell@lemmy.ml 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I literally must migrated here to avoid stupid censorship 🥲

But have you glanced at community/overall rules copypasta?
