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!

As someone who completely believes this is dictator shit...

As politics and society became inclusive, the portrayal of history has changed to accommodate different points of view. This reevaluation turned a lot of historical heroes into more complex people or even outright villains. From their point of view, whomever wins at politics gets to shape history.
