The Babylon Bee easily nabbed the torch from The Onion in the last few years. Surprisingly more edgy, too.

- sjustinas 3y agome reading 89th "attack helicopter" joke in a row: WHEEZE
- seattle_spring 3y agoExactly my thoughts. BabylonBee just seems like a collection of incredibly lazy political jokes. Folks in certain subreddits sure eat it up though; in some there are more BabylonBee posts than actual real content.
- lockhouse 3y agoA shocking amount of Babylon Bee articles have predicted the future too. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/leahbarkoukis/2022/05/30/babylon-bee-headlines-that-have-come-true-n2607773 https://townhall.com/tipsheet/leahbarkoukis/2022/05/30/babyl... Reality has really started to make satirists jobs difficult.
- JuanPosadas 3y agoI stop reading that "list of fulfilled predictions" after the first three because all three "predictions" were substantially different claims than the alleged "fullfillments".
- azan_ 3y agoWow, that's really terrible list when on top you've got "Marvel's newest Captain America is an LGBTQ+ activist" as a fulfillment for "Captain America Rebooted As Feminist, Atheist, Transgender Hydra Agent"
- creatonez 3y agoHard disagree. The Babylon Bee is wildly unfunny, incapable of even the most basic principles of humor most of the time. Half of it is the same few jokes repeated over and over again.
