Is that the guy that likes to give blow jobs to dead pigs?

[–] [email protected] 39 points 2 weeks ago

That's probably how he caught werewolf gonorrhea.

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

You have to be careful with information like that. It might encourage some greedy little pigboy to become an hero.

I thought that was former UK Prime Minister David Cameron.

¿Por que no los dos? Maybe they even like to do it together?

[–] athairmor 80 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Almost worth making a Facebook account to disseminate facts like this.

I've still got one I keep semi-active (to stay in touch with long-distance relatives who aren't tech-savvy enough to move past their first social media site, LOL) and I'll happily post this over there!

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

I keep mine alive for the same reason. This got me to post there for the first time since 2 or 3 years

They stopped fact checking just like Twitter didn't stop fact checking. It means they only stopped fact checking right wing news or popular posts that Zuckerberg doesn't like.

I assure you, if a Luigi post got popular, Facebook will "fact check" it before it gains traction.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Just like any corporate status quo enforcer would yeah. Eh this is me probably preaching to the choir.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

Now that you mention it, it's interesting, considering how we all share the same views, how we use this platform to preach to ourselves rather than to organize and collaborate

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

Interesting and unfortunate.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

I've long said that it's possible venting anger on social media may be kinda like announcing you're gonna do something healthy and then not actually following through, because the brain's flawed reward system gives you the good feel chemicals for just fantasizing about going on that run instead of actually going for a run.

The next question I consider is if it wasn't a deliberate consequence in the early internet...are the billionaire corporates in charge of social media platforms aware of this now, thereby actively seeking out ways to make us docile more efficiently so we don't get "uppity?"

[–] [email protected] 59 points 2 weeks ago

Ol' Rat Cock is at it again, smh.

[–] [email protected] 45 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Ya know if the online world becomes such a cesspool because of Musk and Zuckerberg that it actually brings back the old internet, that would be fucking funny.

[–] Rooty 14 points 2 weeks ago

In order to bring back the old internet you need to stop interacting with corporate silo sites.

Give me niche websites by hobbyists, not "influencers" and stumbleupon 2.0!

I’m so glad that we have reliable news sources to inform us in these trying times.

[–] Frozengyro 14 points 2 weeks ago

Do you think the onion has satire checkers, to make sure stuff is not reality?

I think the satire checkers dropped the ball on this one.

[–] sumguyonline 38 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Possibly THE funniest thing to see as the first thing populating the homepage when tripping shrooms. Good laugh.

This gif looks like it’s from a mid-90s GeoCities page.

Reject modernity, embrace You're The Man Now Dog.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 2 weeks ago

The UHC killer Mark Zuckerberg who framed Luigi?

[–] amlor 24 points 2 weeks ago

Congrats for the upgrade!

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

I heard he eats prolapsed sphincters of diseased elderly animals.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

it'd be basically all sausages except hot dogs, since hot dogs are generally skinless afaik and hold together because they're like 30% flour.

[–] Zoomboingding 2 points 2 weeks ago

No that's RFK

[–] expatriado 19 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

not fair, in the metaverse he has a big dong

[–] rockSlayer 16 points 2 weeks ago

In fact, it exceeds the metaverse maximum by exactly 3 inches. I saw an internal meeting about it where he said "take that, Chad. Who's got a small dick now?"

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's wrong. He wants the user base to check the facts.

Looks correct, if you ask me....

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

Facts are of course by majority rule

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

Yet, although this exhibits strong The Onion energy, strictly speaking this could be posted in Not The Onion. Names matter, and I would love to be a fly on the wall witnessing the momentary meltdowns when people read this there...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

I can understand why he did this. This man has the smallest penis energy I've ever seen in my life.

[–] motor_spirit 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

is the seed of Dee Snider cosplaying as zuck? terrifying asf

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

No, he ain't gonna take it!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

his stupid new hair only makes him look even more punchable, somehow

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Reports on meta state he's at least 10x more punchable.

[–] Kyrgizion 7 points 2 weeks ago

And it was still an upgrade.

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

Would be interesting to see the quality of his AI Project when it's trained on unmoderated Facebook posts.

[–] werefreeatlast 5 points 2 weeks ago

So does it work? Can he fuck rats with it? Can he get rats pregnant?

I'm asking for a friend...squeak! Squeak!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

i was only really doing this for those woke's. you can come back antivaxers and q-anons, we're cool

[–] Fisherman75 4 points 2 weeks ago

Shrodingers rat penis situation sounds like.
