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.”
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.

MODERATORS
Take a step back from the fascism, human rights violations, kidnappings, and concentration camps and just think about the fact that these people are in charge of the government. Regardless of politics, these people are just objectively stupid and have virtually no understanding of anything outside of knowing how to give speeches and spread propaganda.
I know things are bad and will continue to get worse before they get better, but I do take some solace in the fact that these people are so incredibly stupid that they will never be able to run a productive or efficient government. It's like watching as your boss makes his son a manager and seeing everything go to shit around him.
The problem is that people voted for them.
If you ever have a fair and free election again within your lifetime, how do you propose to overcome this demented voting behaviour?
While contemplating that, how do you propose rebuilding your country that has been damaged in the collateral and insidious manner by policy decrees made by an orange man in a red hat?
From where I'm sitting on the other side of the planet, you have your work cut out for you.
