Read before reacting...
This is obvious satire.
Jesus Christ I fully believed this was real.
Shit is bad.
He was recently gaslighting about Canada saying we have been the aggressors this entire time and we started “elbows up” and US boycotts for no reason. The guy is a right cunt.
This article is not far from truth.
I mean, it is pretty damn close to what’s going on.
I thought it was real until I read this comment.
It’s obvious satire…for now
The thing is a while ago it used to be satire now I have to do a double take.
EVERTIME
You never know anymore
This was not obvious satire.
I could honestly see them saying that.
The onion is good at satire news because their headlines are comedic, and have a twist.
The Beaverton is bad at this. The US has threatened all of those things. There’s no comedic twist. This headline entirely plausible, just misattributed to someone else in the administration. Its not a satirical headline, its just false and alarminst, like most actual news online these days.
Yes. The US ambassador actually kicked a live beaver, spit on a photo of Terry Fox, etc. That’s stuff that actually happened and is thus not satire. And the Onion is better as satire because it spells it out for you in the headline, thus not requiring you to do things like “read” and “think”. The Onion totally isn’t a vapid shadow of what it once was since VCs took it over.

If this was obvious satire, what was this: https://vger.to/lemmy.world/post/34282499
Satire is dead. Reality killed it
I almost ate the onion
The title got me, I’ll admit that.
This is not satire, it’s prophecy.
This US ambassador to Canada is ambassador to Canada because the Netherlands laughed him out of the country pretty much in his first day when the press just wiped the floor with him
Damn I wanna be Dutch.
if it was obvious satire you wouldn’t have to list it as obvious satire
if i was lucky enough to be canadian i would be getting my shit ready to turn back the colonizer hordes during the water wars
americans are monsters
It’s obvious satire if you READ THE ACTUAL ARTICLE. Hence “read before reacting”.
I know that the attention span of the younger generation has been crippled, hence the warning to read before reacting. Which of course was itself too much reading for people to do before reacting.
i can’t tell if this is real anymore!?!?
You guys said the same thing before even the anti-American sentiment.
What a sad little man.
