Once again The Onion not being satire.

Tbf, this community is called "The Onion":-P
Yeah, Anyone that follows this community would probably recognize my username because I post a lot of these articles… and the sidebar makes it clear this is a community for all sorts of satire sites. But I think it would’ve been better named “satire” rather than “the onion”

The Onion is to satire sites what Nintendo was to consoles for parents and grandparents of the 80s/90s.

I totally understand the reason why there is confusion, and almost didn't reply because it felt nitpicky. Completely fair.
I feel like we both mentioned facts there - hopefully we added something to the conversation, that there's some nuance wherein it both is but also is not The Onion, depending on which "it" we're talking about:-).
