That doesn’t fully answer my question, but thanks anyway. I won’t bother you with silly queries anymore. As I can now clearly see, this is serious business. Thank you once again, and may God have mercy on our souls.

Okay, so, Onion-like and Onion-esque content is okay, as long as it’s not The Onion. Good to know. I always prefer to ask people in the know aside from just reading the rules. Rules are a bit reductive, and there are so many interpretations. Thanks. But I still don’t know if personal stories with no outside source are allowed. Like, things you read in a newspaper or watch on local news. That kind of thing. I can’t really provide sourcess for those, since the media doesn’t usually provide a source. And is this place for English-only stories or can I post translated/untranslated sources? Because believe me, all media is a circus, not just the media in English. It’s multicultural.

I have a purely empirical question. If this is NOT The Onion, then what is it? Is it everything except for The Onion, or is it an Onion-adjacent community. Will I be banned for posting onions and onion related media. By extension is Shrek allowed, as he is like an onion, which in term has layers, which in term is like an ogre, but also like a person. So is it kind of like The Onion, or nothing like The Onion? You say not to post politics, but all news is political. So I’m not really sure what I’m looking at. And I’m not sure how to engage. And if this is a place for true stories that sound fake, do they have to be sourced, or can they be personal stories. I just need some clarification, that’s all. Thanks in advance.
