I wish I could say this was #theonion talking but I just learned that Liberty University’s masters in social work program gained accreditation by the Council on Social Work Education! What the actual fuck!? A right-wing, Christian indoctrination body that disavows the LGBTQ+ community and believes religion is the answer to trauma and mental illness is now considered legit!? Twlight zone level shit, folks.


Sometimes The Onion just writes the perfect headline.

The Onion headline: 

"We Must Protect The Pure Aryan
Bloodline", Says Child After 9 Minutes Of Unsupervised Facebook Access


i heard someone say that these times are like living in an article from 'the onion'. i think it's more like a 'judge dredd' comic.
#cursedTimeline #dystopia #judgeDredd #theOnion
panel from a 'judge dredd' comic shows an elderly gentleman on his knees at judge dredd's feet. 

the elderly man says: 'please! i beg you! what right have you to do this? can't you let her be laid to rest with dignity? do you take even THAT from us?'

judge dredd replies: 'the law's the law. it's there to be obeyed.'

elderly man: 'don't you think i'd pay if i could? i'm a poor man! i could never afford a place like this! is that justice? one law for the rich - another for the likes of me? is that fair?'


Not even #TheOnion could have written this. Talk about #KentuckyProud. Just when I think this shit hole country cannot go any lower, here ya go.

A bankruptcy judge has rejected The Onion's bid to buy Alex Jones' Infowars site, ruling that the auction process was unfair. "I don't think it's enough money," Judge Christopher Lopez said after a two-day hearing. "I'm not going to approve the sale." It was not immediately clear whether there will be a new auction in which The Onion can participate. Here's more from @NBCNews.

And finally, the most chucklesome story in a week that’s been light on laughs: Our @NewsDesk reported on The Onion’s acquisition of Infowars, which its founder was forced to sell after being successfully sued by the families of Sandy Hook victims. “They are a true unicorn, capable of simultaneously inspiring public support for billionaires and stoking outrage at an inept federal state that can assassinate JFK but can’t even put a man on the Moon,” said CEO Bryce P. Tetraeder in a statement.

Here’s @AssociatedPress’s story on the takeover, which includes not just the site, but the social media presence, video archives, trademarks, and even Jones’ studio in Austin, Texas.

Satirical news publication The Onion has bought Alex Jones' Infowars at a bankruptcy auction backed by families of Sandy Hook Elementary families who are owed more than $1 billion in defamation judgments by Jones. Infowars' website, social media accounts, studio in Austin, Texas, trademarks and video archive are now owned by The Onion, whose CEO Bryce P. Tetraeder said: “No price would be too high for such a cornucopia of malleable assets and minds. And yet, in a stroke of good fortune, a formidable special interest group has outwitted the hapless owner of InfoWars (a forgettable man with an already-forgotten name) and forced him to sell it at a steep bargain: less than one trillion dollars.” Here's more from @AssociatedPress, plus The Onion's full statement.

Satirical website The Onion has bought conspiracy pundit Alex Jones InfoWars out of it bankruptcy (forced on Jones by the money owed to Sandy Hook survivors & families after he lost a case on the lies he told about the shooting).

Now the Q. is how many of InfoWars watchers will spot that there's been a change in ownership.... and how might The Onion use its new channel.

Sadly Jones has claimed he will continue posting just elsewhere....
