I blame the parents. They should have taught their children that morals, ethics, and having a conscience have no place in late stage capitalism.
It’s up to each parent to neglect and abuse their child sufficiently to make them sufficiently sociopathic. At least start them off torturing small animals.
The Onion, doing the Lord's work, yet again.
They got their teeth back.
Oh, it's The Onion. Wouldn't have been surprised if it was true.
Usually The Onion is prescient but...

I guess The Onion had to find a new whipping horse after they were bought by Global Tetrahedron, lol…
What?
It was supposed to be a joke referring to the fact that The Onion used to use fake company Global Tetrahedron for this sort of article, but a bunch of fans of The Onion got together and formed a company called Global Tetrahedron and bought The Onion while it was recently being sold off.
So, the joke was that they had to invent Genocide, Inc. to replace it.
I don’t think people here got the joke.
While I knew about the above I still didn't really get your joke. Calling the fake company Genocide Inc. is kind of integral to their joke, in that the students are protesting against a genocide. If the headline was about Global Tetrahedron not hiring protesters (even before the real one existed) it wouldn't really make much sense.
Sure, but my joke made sense in context
I got the joke. It was good.
People keep downvoting you thinking you are taking shots at the onion, but they are missing the joke. I got it. Points for you.
