Getting dark there, Onion, but on point.

They've been brutal since this entire thing began. More truth coming from The Onion than damn near anywhere else, it seems.

Don't disagree at all on the sentiment, but this was NewsThump and not everybody's favorite Allium

Good point!! I often don't notice the domain when I see posts in this sub, my bad!

Satire is the only form of criticism left at national level publication.

Regime colludes with AIPAC to censor any proper discussion.

They've also just recently been bought by someone who really wants to restore it to it's heyday glory. They're going to do video content again and even release a print edition for paid subscribers.

This is from another satire site actually, but The Onion has been killing it lately

I ate the onion on that title…

How does it taste?

I can confirm, it's got a very mild smell because I was that close to eating it myself and almost took a bite.

You'd have left a lot of crumbs

The Onion is exactly on point.
