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:

  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.

And that’s basically it!

In 1996 a cropduster was an American hero. Thirty years later, he’d be arrested for terrorism just doing his job.

We learned a lot from the green revolution.

We should be arresting people for spraying chemicals that cause health issues in farm workers.

Condensation trails are not caused by spraying harmful chemicals.

Any middle school subject can be a high school subject if enough people fail at grasping the basics.
