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!

That's Hillsborough County not Tampa the city, that goes Republican. We are pretty progressive inside the city but the sprawling county has enough people to drown us out.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I'm not calling out people based on their county. I just pulled an electoral map because it's a quick way to point out that Florida is potentially a purple state. It's got a lot of people supporting civil rights and other progressive goals. I don't want to see it sawed off and abandoned to its gerrymandered leadership. That's what I was trying to communicate.
