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!

If these dudes are going full clown mode, then the media should stop reporting on them. There's no value in anything they say. These aren't alternative viewpoints, this is just babbling in an attempt to be relevant.

Is there some kind of brain fungus going around in the US? This guy, Trump and Musk and many others seem to have it.

I feel like we have a lot less reporting of the Trump drama of the day than in the past. It's still a lot and still way too much, but less?

Definitely less. I hardly ever see anything about him now. I do have filters in place to block anything about him, but stories still slipped through all the time in the past. Nowadays it's rare for something about him to slip through. My wife has no filters in place and she also commented that she's glad she doesn't see shit about him every day any more.

It's redemption time and safe to tune in again.

His first criminal trial is starting in April, the judge just ruled.

Your definition of value does not match theirs.
