Satire, kinda sorta

[Bayard]

1. Not funny

[TommyT139]

2. How about add a graphic warning and also indicate that you think

...of this as "humor."

5. Its labelled as being from the Onion and its labelled as satire.

I think that should be sufficient.

[Hekate]

8. "Sufficient" would be in the title of the post so I don't have to look

Still trying to get that across to people who write their own satire & shaggy dog stories to post at DU. Some of the posts go on and on and on in a completely deadpan manner, and frankly I find life at this point too painful to take all that time getting worked up only to discover I’ve been taken in like a fool.

Just tell us in the title, like this “Hegseth jumps overboard from battleship. Or, did he? “ (satire)

[malaise]

9. It was for me

Rec

10. Yeah, not before I had to look at that image.

But thanks for being so clear.

[Maine-i-ac]

3. The bad part about this is I had to click to see if it was the Onion

because this sounds plausible right now.

11. Every day the line between satire and reality gets thinner

especially when we are talking about someone as crazy as RFK Jr.

[Prairie Gates]

4. ROFL

Bravo!

[LetMyPeopleVote]

6. I love the Onion

7. Sweet jeebus, don't give 'em any ideas!
