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!

Apologies for the duplicate post. I just noticed that someone else posted this two days ago. @[email protected] feel free to nuke this one if you see fit.

No worries, seems to be gaining traction and still makes me go WTF, so I'll allow it.

This sort of news is worthy of a repost, imho

Well, if I wasn't before, I most certainly now would be an extremist in Russia

Well, did you ever talked to someone about your political ideals and they were not the status quo? Well, in Russia you were already in trouble for your extremist ideas.

Maybe the brony insurgency is finally what will topple the Putin regime

~~FRIENDSHIP~~ REVOLUTION IS MAGIC

Edit: Would it be correct to refer to russian bronies as bronik?
