Harmless satire as they're wont to do or hateful?

It is a bit much. As if they are so ensconced in their post-post-post, entitled, ironic, white world, they do not realize they just called a child a cunt.

A reference to the urge among a certain type of persons to describe themselves as "post-" any school of thought or style. Easton Ellis' obsession with certain people being "post-Empire," for example.

Why do some people have to make everything about race?

I don't think the race matters in this case.The age does.

The quote mentions "white world." What else would that be a reference to?

It was an idiotic move on their part.

I was referring more to the fact that The Onion by now feels like they are so so much cooler and above everything else in their humorous superiority...

Now? Have you read The Onion? They've written stuff about dead babies and kids and call them stupid. This isn't a new trend.

Also, The Onion IS better than pretty much every parody site and most sites in general.


Of course I read The Onion and find them hilarious more often than not. But this was out of line, basically because it is just a random offensive thing rather than a smart offensive article that does have a point.

We agree again!

I mean seriously guys it's The Onion.

Just saying, "It's the Onion" to excuse anything and everything is bogus. They were in the wrong here, in my opinion, and the awe-inspiring speed with which they put their tail between their legs and apologized is a testament to their error.

If it was said in footage, it would be fine. Because it was written, with no laughter track or sense of attitude, it's lambasted. I'm fine with her being called a cunt.
