The Onion is nothing but propaganda. Some think it is “funny”.
Some Socialist Media-tards will repost (or repeat snippits of) their articles on facebook, twitter, et al believing things such as Republicasn passing a masturbation law following Wendy Davis’ temper tantrum on the floor.
Such memes (whether they originate at the Onion, which prohibits FR from sharing content or links but no other sites that I am aware of, matters not, it’s the ilk I refer to) poison the culture because the low information voters believe the PROPAGANDA that is pushed by die hard Leftists.
Now they go pimping Obamacare (AND get their share of Obamastash).
The Onion is no different than the Daily Show.
Hook young people in with jokes and entertainment, then start plastering them with leftist propaganda.
Websites like Cracked.com, Mental Floss, and Listverse operate along the same lines.
