Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I'll admit I didn't do my due diligence, was late and was tired, appreciate you correcting me.

Hey, no worries, just dont want us to immediately expect the worst of others and I prefer to push back against it. Trying to give them their credit for doing something.

activism like that is unheard of in this side of the pond, I'm also happy about this

Its certainly rare anywhere or else we wouldn't still be talking about robin hood much.
Its real neat they tried it though.

Nothing is ever over. Even if they hadn't succeeded this is pretty incredible thing to even try to do.

it just so heartwarming to see people put themselves at risk to help strangers in need.
