Who else gets their news from this sub unironically?

Trump issued his first veto. Over a couple billion in wall funding. Republicans in the Senate even devised a malicious plan for him where the next POTUS wouldn't be able to declare a National Emergency. Except they forgot 1 thing: Donald Trump. Trump said hell nah to any curbing of his power, talks withing Republican circles collapsed, resolution to block National emergency passed in Senate 59-41.
Boeing 737 planes be crashing twice in 5 months because pilots haven't had enough time to learn new software, now grounded around the world until they can figure out how to not crash.
Chinese company Huawei can build 5G and underwater Internet cable projects in half the cost of Western companies, United States freaks out and claims Huawei is building backdoors for Chinese government to spy.

I learned a shit ton about the New Zealand shooting in the first hour here that wasn’t mentioned in the media for hours or at all.
1 ottawabrandonwright 2019-03-15
Yeah plus the other subs are trying to fake wokeness by suppressing discussion on it.
1 Zcrash 2019-03-15
How much of it was true?
1 Zac1245 2019-03-15
All of it.
1 GARBAGE_MACHINE 2019-03-15
Unironically the first place I heard about it as well.
1 ottawabrandonwright 2019-03-15
Its sad but retard dramatists are how i find out about current events before anyone else and helps me make decent bits about it.
1 Dramatictuna 2019-03-15
You're finding positive results from using r/Drama? You can't be doing it right.
1 Perrero 2019-03-15
The only positive results one could get here would be on a STD test

Most of the time, this sub is trash for news (duh, it's Reddit) but it actually had the Jussie thing like a week before everyone else
1 VidiotGamer 2019-03-15
There is no way that anyone with half a brain would have bought that bullshit on first sniff. The difference between r/drama and other subs was that talking about it wasn't censored here, so of course ultimately people came to the most likely conclusion.
Mod censorship on other subs is just there to control the conversations that people have so that the only voices left arrive at the conclusion that the moderators endorse. This is why most of reddit is just shitty hugboxes, anyone who disagrees with whatever bullshit the moderators are peddling is ether banned or fucks off after a while.
1 le_epic_xd 2019-03-15
Me. Apart from early misreporting, r/drama's "investigators" are quick to find reliable information dumps before the media outlets can analyse them. Obviously I'm going to triple check anything this subs spurs out, though
1 ottawabrandonwright 2019-03-15
Thats the trick tho.
Jesse smollet was fake as shit and r/drama knew
And with that aussie senator and his lmao news letter about how the dirty knees had it coming, i fact checked it, and bam race war acolyte confirmed.
1 Norci 2019-03-15
Drama calls fake on pretty much everything "woke" tho, so it's bound to be right sooner or later.
1 ottawabrandonwright 2019-03-15
Im gonna need examples
1 Wegwerfkontobelegt 2019-03-15
I also use wallstreetbets, the poor man's Bloomberg.
1 POST_BUSSY 2019-03-15
That's where I learned about autism

Getting investment tips from there is also a great way to stay poor.
1 Wimzer 2019-03-15
Literally do just the opposite of every bit post and you’ll do fantastic

Inversing WSB is a good strategy unless WSB itself tells you to inverse WSB.
1 MemeMeUpFamilia 2019-03-15
Unironically, yes. I only found out about the shooting through here. It took several hours before the story really got out there.
1 high_side 2019-03-15
Yeah also movie reviews and career advice.
1 Kat_B0T 2019-03-15
🤢
1 Seattle_Bussy_Lmao 2019-03-15
I like the variety.
1 ItsOverForTayceIIs 2019-03-15
If you non ironically get your news here you need to investigate ways to maintain your safety.
1 AlphaToasteBoi 2019-03-15
Go away boomer
1 ExtremelyOnlineG 2019-03-15
Very unironically this.
1 error404brain 2019-03-15
The only reason I care about news is to have shit to make small talk. r/drama always provide funny/stupid news, which are great for watercooler conversations.
So yes. I unironically get most of my international news from here. Which is yet another reason behind why I should embrace the rope, I believe.
1 YEET_ON_THEM_LIBS 2019-03-15
"It's pretty windy out there, eh Jim?"
"bussy lmao"
1 lolbitchcalmdown 2019-03-15
Look, you may be new here, but /r/drama is where many top minds collaborate, and routinely outsmart the most well funded, well equipped and diabolical organizations on earth. How do we do it? Top thinkers , experts on every field, unparalleled investigative skills and fearlessness. I would trust a top comment here over pretty much any news source, especially a mainstream source, any day.
1 shitpersonality 2019-03-15
/r/drama is the Prometheus Society of subreddits.
1 dramasexual 2019-03-15
I unironically get my news from kiwifarms dot com
1 Pineapple201 2019-03-15
Wait this isnt the only subreddit, there are more?
1 xShiroto 2019-03-15
Fyi for the Boeing thing it isn't pilot error but rather faulty software.
In this instance, the new automatic stall prevention system goes off, and keeps pointing the nose of the aircraft down, forcing the pilots to fight it to go up. And the plane goes down up down up down up until it crashes.
It can be disabled but pilots didn't know how because Boeing never told them about it. This isn't the first time an aircraft has crashes because the manufactuerer added some automatic system without informing anyone about it.
1 razzmataz 2019-03-15
It was a combination of that and not having simulators for the MAX, as well as the claim that the MAX was functionally the same as the previous 737 series.
1 Hemingwavy 2019-03-15
Current theory on why the Max crashed is because it's poorly designed and the sensors it uses to try and work out its angle of attack only relies on two sensors, so if one is faulty then you can't tell which one. It automatically makes the plane's nose angle downwards if it's thinks you're flying at too steep an angle which could cause the plane too stall.
A single faulty sensor forces the plane's nose to continually point more towards the ground which if you're flying a plane is not a great thing.
Boeing knew about this but didn't bother putting it in the manual that you can turn it off.

The shooter drama is already a good contender for best drama of 2019, because jesus christ this is spicy. Civil war when?
