A place to share and discuss stories from The Onion, Clickhole, and other satire.
Great Satire Writing:
Can you bite the onion if the news are, not only plausible, but reasonable?
Just a little bite, as a treat.
But yeah legitimately I don't see anything in that headline I don't believe is true.
I guess "courageously"
"courageously" - that's The Onion's way of giving readers a hint it might be satire.
Except, have you read anything the "news" has put out about the guy? They kiss his taint regularly and only touch him with kid gloves. Just saying...
I mean it’s not just plausible it’s literally true https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/01/us/politics/trump-nuclear-submarines-russia.html?referringSource=articleShare
"Trump-Epstein files"
I hope the media catches onto this phrase.
Hey onion.... could you make satire again?
Is he copying Netanyahu's work?
This, but for real.
What but nuclear will the war be in 2027?

All the Trump shenanigans are a distraction from the preparations.
Misread courageously as egregiously. Still kinda works.
Why is this filed under 'theonion'? Does anyone actually think he wouldn't start a nuclear war to avoid embarasment, let alone what would happen to him if anything damning came out in those files? I sippose the only unbelivable bit is that he is planning anything, rather than being told what to think.
It's satire, which always has some element of truth to it in order to be effective comedy.
I bit into this onion
No, it's entirely biteable and in fact quite possible. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/01/us/politics/trump-nuclear-submarines-russia.html?referringSource=articleShare
yes that’s why I bit into it
When reality surpasses fiction
He is sorta doing that right now by moving the submarines near Russia
