What’s bizarre is this was posted on [email protected]. I commented that Arnold, the Reagan Republican, posted a reaction vid in which he refers to Trump as a “wet noodle”.
The entire thread is now gone. This happens a lot with mild criticism of Trump.
Wow, we’ve really become inured to the absurd horror of it all when “Kremlin Leaks Footage Showing Trump Fawning Over Putin” is deemed “Not really Onion-y.”
In a sane world a headline like that would be so outlandish it could only be satire.
It’s just whataboutism. There’s been extensive, well-sourced evidence of instances like .ml abusing their powers to support authoritarian dictatorships, so to to muddy the waters a lot of people are spamming “.world bad” at every opportunity. Notice how they never give examples of any of .world’s supposedly massive wrongdoings, they just treat it as something everyone knows.
As for this example, it probably wasn’t Onion-y enough.

Is Lemmy.world state media for Trump?
That Arnold comment was from the first Trump presidency.
And yet it’s still relevant. Wet noodle is spot on when Trump is in Putin’s vicinity.
The modlog explains why it was removed.

The onion becoming reality is our present situation.

There’s, uh, a little bit of trump criticism on .world . . .
