The Onion is truly a national treasure.
- kobalsky 2y agothey are fueled by clickbait, and they've promoted the practice. it's probably the first site I've manually added to my dns blacklist.
- shevis 2y agoMy friend, you have eaten the onion.
- kobalsky 2y agoI'm not from the US so naturally they've confused me in the past. more than once I caught myself clicking on a shared headline of theirs, so I've added them to my DNS blocklist to avoid giving them clicks, decades ago. my problem is not with their obviously ridiculous headlines, but the ones that hit the grey area, where it's as much good humor as a screamer is good horror.
- consteval 2y agoThe thing is the onion is pretty much always ridiculous, so if some of them are in a "gray area" I think that moreso speaks to the overall climate or your own personal biases.
