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!
Posts must be:
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!

They used to be good

They should negotiate bonuses for writers who predict the future.
I used to love The Onion so much. Then the state of affairs got so bad that The crap coming out of the government was worse than the stuff they made up. I get PTSD tics now wearing that someone in the government is going to take notes.

their tiktok videos are pretty good as it makes fun of the typical tiktok videos, but peak onion may never be reached again
Literally the Onion
The Onion Union. Say it 5 times fast.
It! It! It! It! It!
I said FAST!

In other words they've noticed that a bunch of greedy venture capitalists bought them and aren't gonna let 'em just liquidate/automate their jobs for a quick buck.
They're also probably feeling a bit paranoid after watching Hard-Drive have the same thing happen.
Is this the onion? Or not the onion? Or not not the onion?
On r/nottheonion this would be removed as "not oniony".
It's got layers.
Which makes it the most onion-y.
