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.”

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 live in rural Alberta and it's pretty rare for anyone to profess admiration for the orange shitbird. It's usually the people nobody likes to be around anyway.

I call bullshit on this article.

The trick is that they’re cherry-picking the most right-wing province and comparing it to the entire US averaged as a whole.

I hope you're right because rural Alberta was why we have Danielle Smith as Premier. She's a lunatic.

Man, nobody I've talked to around here has the time of day for Smith.

Tbh sounds right I don't think anyone really likes trump anymore. So maybe a handful of loonies in Canada do like him more than the US
