    I’ve noticed a distinct sharpening of the satire at The Onion since it changed hands.

    I can’t tell if the Onion gets their ideas from the stuff DeSantis does or if DeSantis gets his ideas from reading the Onion.

    In my opinion, the funniest thing about the phrasing of the headline:

    It would just straight up make it illegal to be a woman of color in Florida, which might be the republican goal irl

    Jesus, I almost ate that onion. For a moment, the headline shocked me, but wasn’t that unbelievable… and that, in and of itself, is terrifying

    Don’t give the Republicands anyy more ideas. DeSantis probably reads The Onion as a source of inspiration.

    On the other hand, The Onion has perfectly summarized GOP ideas on this topic…

        To be fair, I’d read that and assume it was a scam. You need just the right mix of not quite illiterate but gullible enough to call a random number and hand your details over to someone promising money, and I feel Nigerian princes and widows just trying to get their money out of the country and will cut be on for a share if I help have that market cornered.

    This is so on point and explains their anti-immigration policies perfectly.

    As I’m sure pudding fingers will be inspired to make this into an actual law, and as I’m sure he doesn’t know what “ex post facto” means, I look forward to seeing this applied to my over-22-year-old childless sister.

      It took me a minute to figure out who pudding fingers was. There are so many doughy politicians.

    Lab grown meat is banned but eating babies is now legal. Florida is crazy.
