I think the best humour has always been humour that makes you think very hard about real issues, political and societal. Uganda is a situation I have actually followed since the Idi Amin days, and it is truly horrible there. I think the brief searing Onion bit addresses several key issues, and the original post really is a mirror in the face of America, and it's motivations. I think The Onion's fake news is far more pointed than the real news, as it addresses issues with a skewed sense of humour, presents real facts at the same time, and is truly no-holds-barred, unlike much of our 'legitimate' media. In fact, some past articles have inspired me, a political neophyte, really, to investigate further into political issues around the world. I hope they keep it up.
