A place to share and discuss stories from The Onion, Clickhole, and other satire.
Great Satire Writing:
It's always:
We can disagree on one thing
Like, no, it's not "one thing" it's an innumerable amount of horrible shit rolled into a ball, and you're supporting all of it
Like a dung beetle rolling shit into a giant ball all day, it's all shit, but it's technically just one piece of shit now
That's fine. I don't want to talk politics with him either.
I'm sorry. I mispoke. Let me correct myself.
I don't want to talk ~~politics~~ with him either.
Yes. That's more accurate!
So if I am an introvert, I should wear a MAGA hat and an ICE jacket?
I think then the extroverted racists would just assume you're also a racist too. And say the WORST things imaginable to you, thinking they're in a safe space.
This happens to me just because I'm a man with white skin who dresses country. I do love throwing them for a loop when it happens though.
Same here, working on classic cars gives me the opportunity to take lots of money from old rich white guys. I donate to PBS, NPR, and On the Media with it.
Ew.
Although, I could just run away. Would it mean less people would talk to me?
Please note I am joking and don't actually intend on wearing a MAGA hat or an ICE vestment
It worked for Larry David in Curb Your Enthusiasm. For a while...
It would only keep decent people away. Assholes would flock to you.

What if I wear a transgender pride scarf
Then you'd look like a trans for Trump person, making both sides hate you. That just might work! Although you're at risk for violence from Trumpistas.
What if I carry a gun
I'm getting worried onion articles aren't supposed to be this accurate
In my family, talking about politics has gotten a lot easier as of late. Even the conservatives and moderates in the family can agree that Trump and Elon are dumb af.
And they probably support them in private and vote along party lines still.
No, the conservatives just didn’t vote.
This is a blissfully accurate article
Just report him for impersonating an officer of the law (whatever law is left in the US, but it might work).
Or report him to ICE
that's not how it works tho unfortunately. you're allowed to dress up like an officer. it's about whether you impersonate one in other words, make people believe you are one. if simply dressing like a cop is illegal, the male stripper industry would collapse.
Freedom of speech to them, like displaying political beliefs in a public setting, is always about forcing you to see/hear their bullshit while accusing you of trying to limit their “right” when you criticize and call out their bullshit.
Freedom of speech is a one-way street for them.
They kinda operate that way from top to bottom; whatever they can do to others to cause harm, they do their best to eliminate any recourse. US citizen deported? Sorry, we’ll throw the judge in jail who rules in your favor.
