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:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content 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.

Whitehouse is not sane and should not be given any credence

Can we just start revolting yet?

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

We can but pulling logistics online leaves us open to plan spying by the enemy. Even using Signal is not secure enough if the govt military can be outed on it

[–] Aspharr@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

To be fair to Signal, they kinda outed themselves by including that journalist in the chat. That's not really a fault of signal. But they also shouldn't have been using signal in the first place, so there's that.

The people rising up would include most of the military. If not literally all

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If they were rising up on our side, we could have the legislature and the whitehouse cleaned out in no time. They would more likely rise up on the govts side

Absolutely nobody in the military enjoys especially his global politics
