SocialMediaRefugee, They used to be good
splicerslicer, Well the world got so crazy they realized their material can’t keep up anymore
synae, Their picket signs are going to be next level
iAvicenna, jokes onyou
Death_Equity, They should negotiate bonuses for writers who predict the future.
linearchaos, I used to love The Onion so much. Then the state of affairs got so bad that The crap coming out of the government was worse than the stuff they made up. I get PTSD tics now wearing that someone in the government is going to take notes.
DuckOverload, Onion also got bought out a couple times. The new videos are low effort crap; nothing like the superb clips from 10-15 years ago, which is probably the best satire ever created.
darkkite, their tiktok videos are pretty good as it makes fun of the typical tiktok videos, but peak onion may never be reached again
linearchaos, I’m honestly kind of shocked they survived the Trump administration. Could you imagine trying to outbid the government for crazy during those years?
silver_wings_of_morning, Literally the Onion
Tja, The Onion Union. Say it 5 times fast.
iknowitwheniseeit, It! It! It! It! It!
Tja, I said FAST!
rickyrigatoni, ititititit!!!!!
yukichigai, The guild is seeking contracts that include staffer protections in the event of the sale of the company, improved severance offerings, and basic protections from AI.
In other words they've noticed that a bunch of greedy venture capitalists bought them and aren't gonna let 'em just liquidate/automate their jobs for a quick buck.
They're also probably feeling a bit paranoid after watching Hard-Drive have the same thing happen.
Godric, Damn, I didn’t know Hard-Drive died. Anyone know good alternatives?
Gaspar, Well, have you considered switching to solid state?
… I’ll show myself out.
Grant_M, Feel like I’m being Onion’d right now!
bedrooms, Is this the onion? Or not the onion? Or not not the onion?
On r/nottheonion this would be removed as "not oniony".
Potatos_are_not_friends, (wormhole opens up)
Agent641, Onion’t
NegativeLookBehind, Oniain’t
WhiskyTangoFoxtrot, It’s got layers.
runner_g, Which makes it the most onion-y.
sirdorius, Can’t wait for the Onion article covering this news!
MajorHavoc, But I’m guessing we will have to.
Pips, In solidarity.
LazaroFilm, Wait. Is it a joke or… I feel trapped into the Opposite Day loop here.
DreamlandLividity, Wait, what? $44 milion in revenue? Thats peanuts for company this size, isn’t it?
rwhitisissle, I’m assuming that’s just revenue from The Onion, although the wording on it leaves much to be desired.
i_have_some_enemies, Oh no! Anyway
Speculater, Now this is meta.
gravitas_deficiency, I’ll try striking! That’s a good trick!
AngryishHumanoid, Technically OP is off topic, if one happens to be a pedantic asshole. Which I am.
CosmicCleric, if one happens to be a pedantic asshole. Which I am.
It felt very good to upvote this one comment, for some strange reason. :p
linearchaos, Any other circumstances I’d be like screw that guy, but it scans so well right here…
