      one of the podcasts i listen to made a joke about Tim Onion buying Infowars and i am still cracking up over it.

      also I’m super upset that someone already took the handle tim_apple on everything😤

        It’s getting harder to discern reality from satire, but Tim Onion has actually been The Onion’s CEO’s name* ever since he bought that job. And he is trying to buy InfoWars. (And the company formerly known as Twitter has joined Jones’ fight to prevent it.)

        *(his bluesky display name, at least)

            Even better, the parents of the Sandy Hook kids gave the Onion money won in the settlement to buy infowars.
