Should have linked this instead:

[theonion.com/search?q="No Way To Prevent This"](https://www.theonion.com/search?q="No\ Way\ To\ Prevent\ This")

Edit: Effin hell, Liftoff or Lemmy keeps butchering the URL

Edit 2: Had to escape each space in the URL to make it work

Edit 3: Jerboa users try this link instead:

https://www.theonion.com/search?q=No+Way+To+Prevent+This

(Loses the quotes enforcing the word order in the search matches)

Looks like spaces are not standard per W3 schools. Either have to use pluses or %20.

The Onion search does not seem to like %20

https://www.theonion.com/search?q=No%20Way%20To%20Prevent%20This

Liftoff attempts to "correct" the URL with %20s for spaces.
