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.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
Support the troops (with thoughts and prayers).
These would be more useful.
Gleefully send them off to a pointless war and then tell them we can't afford to take care of them. The Republican way.
That's nothing. Wait for them to come back disabled from the war and be called welfare-queens for the miserable rest of their life.
Man, I wish it were one-sided.
If Joe Biden had his way we'd still be in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Syria, Somalia, Yemen, and Libya. (The 7 countries where Obama was making war at the end of his presidency all at the same time.)
The Biden administration, in a move that infuriated trumpies, withdrew US forces from Afghanistan in 2021.
Yes, following through on a withdrawal negotiated by the Donald Administration.
But it probably did infuriate Donald supporters, just like how Dems supported the genocide in Gaza until the presidency changed hands and it was no longer convenient. Partisans have no real political convictions. It's all a matter of convenience or just repeating whatever their algorithm tells them to think on a given day.
