Not The Onion
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:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments 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!
The sheer absurdity of this "news" piece perfectly encapsulates the late-stage capitalism circus we’re trapped in. A real estate fire sale of cultural landmarks? Only in a world where oligarchs treat nations like Monopoly properties and influencers mistake clickbait for journalism. Hollywood’s already a hollowed-out shell of corporate algorithms—selling it to Denmark would at least spare us another superhero reboot.
Propaganda outlets peddling geopolitical fanfiction while actual democracies crumble? Classic misdirection. Meanwhile, the same clowns who’d auction Yellowstone to Saudi princes for a tax break are now cosplaying as statesmen. It’s not satire anymore—it’s a diagnostic manual for civilizational collapse.
Social media’s algorithmic abyss keeps amplifying this narcissistic delirium until reality itself becomes a glitchy deepfake. Unplug the servers before someone Tweets Greenland into the ocean.
Darn, I was kind of hoping for a viking raid of Mar-a-Lago followed by some pillaging up and down the gulf coast. Get some pirates back in the Caribbean and rename the Gulf to something even more obnoxious.
This just in population of California grows by approx. 277 million people.
"I, for one, welcome our new Viking overlords."

still ain't gonna win a super bowl.
Why do you hurt me like this?
Ok so the Danes get the west, Canada gets the north, Mexico gets as much of the south as they want, and the rest can be The United States Of Trump until it gets destroyed
I think we're okay with letting Cascadia chart its own course and we hope to make use of its can-mex rail link.
Can you give some back to the First Nations people?
I wish. Unfortunately none of the governments staking claims give a shit about them.
Sorry, we're still only breaking treaties.
Please let this happen.
EU citizenship with no hassle?
Hell yes!
Yes, sign me up. I'm ready. Right now. Seriously. Do they want money?
This would be the biggest mass migration to California since the last one.
I would kill for some hygge right now
He’ll probably jump at the opportunity.
Can they buy oregon and Washington too?
And North Carolina. Trump can keep South.
I volunteer Minnesota as well.
Wisconsinite here. I'm hoping the great lakes area is occupied by Canada after we lose WW3.
Don't forget Colorado, we have lots of drugs!
As a Coloradoan, I approve of being sold to Denmark.
I'm sure we could work out a buy 2 get 1 free deal
As a Cali expat in Washington I approve of this.
I support this sale.
Lets go Danes!
