    Not using someone’s “preferred pronouns” would get you suspended, as well. And I’m not anti gay or anti trans. A clip of of Austin Powers saying, “That’s a man, baby!” would get you suspended, too. It’s just completely ridiculous.

    • I personally find the Bee less funny than the Onion, whose been doing their thing a lot longer, but every once in a while they drop a zinger.

      The Onion has a lot more 'slice of life' humor. Headlines like "HR Director reminds employees that any crying done in office must be work-related". The Bee is mainly political satire.

        The Onion is like a newspaper (I actually remember when it actually was just that). It has a politics tab, sports, etc, etc. it -like the Bee- is hit and miss but both occasionally cause some gut laughs. Banning it, or fact checking it, is just asinine.​

        • Yeah I don't remember what year it was but I remember visiting DC and the Onion print version was just given away for free in machines set up next to USA Today and The Post.

                    No it just means that Trump is a fucking clown ( but we all knew that)

                      Don't be such a grouch. Sometimes you're almost as bad as The Wizard ... But not quite.

                      • Liney, in the spirit of the holiday and being thankful, most of all, that I'm not THE_WIZARD_, I will tell you only to STFU and charitably omit the ESAD and GFY you so richly deserve.

                          Ha!

                          I follow the Donald J Trump satire page on Facebook.

                          It is obviously satire, but sometimes with Trump's insanity it is hard to tell the difference.

                          This post on Truth Social could easily be from that site.

                          BTW, the responses from Trumpsters that don't realize it's satire are pretty funny.

                              Touché. Comparing THE_WIZARD_ to CGVT is like comparing Steak to Bologna...respectively.
