To tie into the topic of the article, I once stoned to death my pet goldfish after he was showing signs of age and that was more clever than anything that the onion has done in their near-36 year span of creating misinformation, or anything the veterinary clinic could've told me to do otherwise. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Shampiss@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago Hey man. It looks like you have some built up angst towards The Onion or towards this topic It's fine if you're just letting some emotions out, but I just want to point out that the Onion is not trying to inform anyone. How can they spread misinformation if every article is clearly satire? You may find it to be a terrible joke but I don't get why this has caused you this much stress Would you care to elaborate? permalink fedilink source parent [–] Darkenfolk@dormi.zone 3 points 2 years ago You are aware that the onion is a satire piece and that they shouldn't be taken serious? permalink fedilink source parent
