Welcome
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:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments 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.
And that’s basically it!

I mean...
If I were writing a fictional story about world domination by ruthless politicking, overthrowing foreign governments, and assassinating key opposition figures around the globe without an effective concern for local populations, it would be about the US.
But if I were writing one where the first step to world domination was an advanced moon base... pretty much gonna be Russia or China.
Yeah, ok, I can kinda see it
So we either go capitalist cyberpunk or 40k grimdark? How do we unlock the star trek option?
FWIW the first one is pretty much actual US Imperialism.
Unfortunately for Star Trek we need to go through the Bell Riots first.
