Almost bought it. If they had called it a new bill, "introduced" or some such, instead of "law" it would be perfectly feasible.

The comment section saves me once again.

That's antithetical to satire.
What y'all experienced, in this headline, is The Onion fucking up. They picked a lie that's believable. Satire has to reach further than that, no matter how broken reality gets.
"Eating the onion" came from dipshits with zero media literacy believing the dumbest shit imaginable. Like "teenage girl to be tried as adult black man." If a bunch of reasonably savvy people have to check whether a satirical headline is real - that headline sucks. It has failed, as satire.
Comedy is selecting a lie your audience knows is not true. If half of them are going 'wait, really?' - revise.

It's pretty much impossible to satirise US politics, isn't it?

"Indiana places all owners of Twister game on sex offender registry."
"Entire adult population held for questioning following anti-porn sting."
"Indiana prepares for porn criminalization by building prison wall around entire state."
"Indiana constructs new prison on former site of Ohio."
"Viewers of 'creampie' porn sentenced to watch videos to full term."
"ICE checkpoints established at vestibulum vaginae."
"Baby born on plane from Thailand deported back to Nigeria."

As someone who grew up in Indiana, I believed it for a second or two

I ate the onion

Welp they got me on this one. Good shit, Onion. Ridiculous we live in a world where I believed this for a good 10 seconds.
-
Yeah same here.

Genuine case of "this headline could easily be true in the current climate".
-
I was genuinely eating this onion before I came to the comments lol. Came here to drop a WTF rant, and instead I find out I'm a dummy right now.
-
I was honestly wondering how many people would tell on themselves.
-
-
My immediate reaction was "yeah, that tracks".

The funny thing is that, if this were true, it would be the most efficient and effective way to register a hundred politicians, especially Republicans, as sex offenders.
-
Oh no... I wasn't "watching porn" I was researching content to make sure the law is properly applied!
-
No, see... It was a "staffing issue"! Totally wasn't me. On my account.

Should have said Ohio
-
laugh all you want, but the Kids Online Safety Act would do this on a federal scale... and it's already passed the house
