      As a communist, I gravitate like a moth to the light towards any anti-capitalist news media. So thank you for posting that this was fake, because I also like to believe real things, and it’s frustrating with stuff like this happens.

      On the other hand, it is also frustrating that capitalist news media takes these stories and runs with it without doing any research whatsoever.

      How many times has an “onion” story been reported on by some news media?

        The absurdity of late stage capitalism makes the onion only report the news slightly wrong but years before the event actually happens.
