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!

MODERATORS
I think it’s more “there’s no such thing as bad attention.”
Any engagement compounds, and at some point, turns into money. It’s not a mystery either, it’s a systemic issue from the way people are fed information now, thanks to the engagement optimization race to the bottom.
Celebrities can certainly fall, but it’s only if they’re boring.
