Alright. At what point do we admit that The Onion is just serving out legitimate factual stories?

This absolutely happened, right?

It took me quite the moment to realize this was the onion so likely yes.

[–] PunnyName 11 points 2 months ago

I straight up ate the onion this time.

Yes it sounds plausible but the timeline does not add up. When Ivanka was 14 they were still friends.

Damn, got me. Didn't see the community this was for a sec and it had me going.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yup. I bit too. When the Onion is this fast it's hard to catch them. The Carlson Tucker one almost got me too.

This one too plausible for satire.

It'd be hilarious if Trump publicly denied it, turning the onion into an actual news outlet.

You can tell this is from The Onion, because their sick relationship probably never soured.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

... Because they absolutely would have just taken turns

Eiffel Tower or Devil’s?

I mean, there was that post earlier today about someone having about 100 hours of voice recordings of interviews with Epstein about shit Trump told him, about the white house and otherwise.

[–] Duamerthrax 2 points 2 months ago

Supposedly it did, but because Trump kept saying the quite part loud.

[–] Duamerthrax 26 points 2 months ago

Hmm, seems about right...

glances at url

ah

[–] MeaanBeaan 24 points 2 months ago

Well I ate that one.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

DAMNIT. I really ate the onion here. Good job.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Was literally you comment that made me realise what was going on. Lord everything is cooked ATM

"If I can't have her, no one can have democracy."

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago

Hot damn this one got me.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

I recently mused that it has got to be hard for the Onion to come up with something these days given how reality keeps catching up to satire, but this headline proves it's not just hard, it's downright impossible to satirize Trump.

[–] DrSleepless 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I just threw up in my mouth a little bit

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Imagine doing that every day for the next four years. Please vote.

[–] PunnyName 12 points 2 months ago

For Kamala, specifically.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Wow I almost fell for this. Sounds so believable in today's atmosphere.

Guys, why are y'all just topping the least funny Onion articles? It's mostly political stuff ☹️
