Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Holy shit.

This is going to be bigger than The Beatles and they were bigger than Jesus.

Well, of course, The Beatles were bigger than Jesus... there were four of them.

If there'd been Chicken Big Macs available at that point in time, probably each of them would have been individually several times bigger than Jesus.

Meg, they are kinda disappointing. Even more tasteless than a normal big mac.

Who goes to McDonald’s for the taste?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Honestly? Back when I ate meat, like once a year, I'd really crave a McDonald's Quarter Pounder. But it was only once a year if that.

I guess even the cheapest Brazilian beef they can find isn't producing the profits they want now.

Good. Chicken is exponentially less bad for the environment.

It's too bad I can't eat solid food or I'd make it a point to not eat this.

Oh shit the advertisers found Lemmy.

Hail corporate

As a former employee of McDonalds we’ve had these for a while, they just weren’t on the public menu.

It is expected to retail for $40.
