Not The Onion

Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

He's got 29 million subscribers across two youtube channels, I didn't bother to check other socials. I hate him, but many others clearly don't feel the same.

I thought most people who follow him don't like him but either hatewatch his content or like his content without liking him as a person

That group definitely accounts for a healthy percentage of his viewership, but I doubt that number is above 25%. I don't personally know anyone who hatewatches stuff, seems like a dismal way to spend free time.

Believe me, a lot of people do it! Mostly unemployed people and kids I think.

I watch his stuff very rarely, but usually not to see him. He had xQc on Impaulsive recently I plan on listening to that episode soon.
