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!

Hell yes, sow more distrust and anger. That's the way to unify the country 🤣😂

Only if it includes a water feature at neck-level with some red lighting to re-create his finest moment.

They just so desperately want to be important and yet their desperation is making the times very important but their actions completely unworthy of being praised.

So stupid.

Fuckin go for it. It'll get trashed the following day and every day following it.

I am assuming they put an excerpt from "I have a dream" for MLK. I wonder what they'll put for CK? The empathy one, the sacrifices must be made for guns one or his actual final words about "gang violence"?

A statue to pedo-protector Charlie Kirk, friend to pedos the world over, and beloved by all pedos?

Shooting a statue in the neck in honour of his propaganda success.

DC really could use more public places to piss.

Would it not be better to have monuments to ideals instead of people, who can be flawed, idolized? ...asking for a friend

We have those too. Justice with her blindfold, scales, and sword as well as lady liberty with her woke poem claiming we want huddled masses yearning to be free. Hell, even our obsession with our founding documents fits in that category
