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.”
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!

Feel free to call my take hyperbolic but this is genocidal.
This aims to eradicate a culture. That's the definition of the word.
We've been genocidal ever since we started ripping children from their parents.
Ripping minority children from their parents has been a tradition in the USA since the very beginning. From the shameful history of slavery, to the shameful history of native American boarding schools, to the shameful current reality of anti-immigration policies and enforcement.
Yes, we've been genocidal the whole time. We've pretty much never been the good guys.
