You don't fake news!
News is supposed to be Serious!
Contrary to... Belief, the onion news is not actually news.
Except for that one time where it was terrifyingly prophetic. I always wonder how the folks who wrote that one felt about it over the following years.

Good duuvian that is terrifying. The only thing they missed was the patriot nonsense.

I found this gem of political idiocy on the NationStates forum:

Texas judge warns of civil war if Obama is re-elected

I assume it was about cod tendies and an austerity-caused crunch in the supply of good boy points.

That's only, what? The third time that's been linked today? :P

I haven't read it, but I'm sure the stupidity within is immense.

The funniest thing in that article is that the Texas Judge "is calling for a trained, well-equipped force to battle the United Nations troops he says Obama would bring in.".

Those United Nations troops which do not exist.

He's probably thinking of UN peacekeeping mission. The same guys who can't stop African civil wars being fought mostly with machetes. Fear their non-interventionist might! Tremble before their mandate not to engage in hostilities!

Besides, the "UN World Army" boogieman is a throwback to the 1990's. Please please please please let somebody start talking about Obama's fleet of black helicopters next. I'll break out my flannel and acid-washed jeans and throw some Temple of the Dog in the CD player, and it can be the early 90's all over again. Sweet!

Black Helicopters are old. It's all about the spy drones now.

For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Facepalm-worthy, especially considering the name isn't even spelled correctly.

Keep reading! Eventually your faith in humanity will get so low it'll flip right back around into the positives.

Note that this implies insanity/denial, not signed integer overflow.
