I love this, but now I also want to see "10 times the Babylon bee turned into reality". I know, you know, that we know, that you can do it.
BRILLIANT!!!!!
Pretty sure that's been done. Maybe not officially like this, but they did talk about all the Bee articles that came true. Difficult to do satire when the world is even crazier.
See the sister site, Not the Bee.
@@andyjones7121 Prophecy…Fulfilled!
Shortly after the Mar-A-Lago raid, The Bee posted how Biden was jealous and wanted his own raid. 🤣😂🤣.
We’re at the point where satire is more believable than reality.
Truth is truly stranger than fiction.
Poe's Law
I can't believe California girl has come this far after moving to Texas. She finally joined the Babylon Bee podcast.
🤣😂ex Californian here it is easy to wake up when you leave 😜🤣
@@Pita_Leela As a non-American, I had a dream of visiting places in America like California. But now, my third world country is much more peace and order than California now. It's now in the mess even those people who grow up and came back to CA feel so sad to these state.
@@connordrake5713 Having visited California fairly regularly (maybe every year or two) for most of my life, I can tell you that a lot of the "touristy" stuff you might want to see is fine. In fact, when I visit, I often am told by locals that "California is a great place to visit, just not such a great place to live." And yes, I've gotten essentially those exact same words from a number of different people on a variety of occasions.
@@philipmcniel4908
Just don’t turn down the wrong street...
@@philipmcniel4908 So from what you say it seems that California is just like most 3rd World tourist destinations. "Stay on the tourist tracks. Don't stray into the back streets."
My favorite was back in the day when the official Chinese News Agency ran the Onion story as real that Congress threatened to move away from Washington DC if they didn't get a new Capitol building with a retractable roof.
How would a chinese news agency know what satire is?
they should totally do that XD
@@unevilGenius "They should totally do" what? Move Congress or get a retractable roof?
@@Col316Sing How about both?
Now you gotta do 10 times people thought “not the bee” articles were fake
That's genius!
The real joke is some of your titles apply better than actual news sources
The reason so many people think it's real is because too many stories like these are coming true. Also the curse word edits had me dying 😂😂😂
nah it‘s just cuz republicans will believe anything as long as it sheds a bad light on the bogeymen fox news programmed them to fear 🤷♂️
Also some of them may know its satire but just want to vent, and some people troll and pretend the think its real
I must say that the first bee news story I saw was the one about Peter Jackson planning to make the Silmarrilion into a ten hour movie. I got really really upset and embarrassingly ranted for about an hour.
I am sorry. Busy busy. Even now, I am messaging while on break at work. I have to admit,I don’t get the chance/opportunity/concentration level to comment, let alone read many comments. I work 9-10 hours a day (swing shift) try to keep up with the family (two autistic kids) while having multiple sclerosis. I don’t mean to ignore you.
Don't worry, I saw one article about how there's supposedly enough footage for Jackson to release a multi day cut of Lord of the Rings. My mom and I prayed that was true!
ONLY 10 times?? This could be a weekly feature!
I remember a friend forwarded an article from The Onion 20 or so years ago and I replied with angry response. I didn't know about The Onion and when he told me about them, I laughed at both the article and myself.
I admit, I fell for that one too
"Man's feet kill 12 ppl" 😂🤣
@@beatrixkiddo5 Those darn fully-automatic assualt feet.
I fell for one years ago briefly. I figured it out when I googled the onion and read the DNA free potato piece.
@@Eureka2003 Of course not, we don't want people smuggling them into schools.
Now I need a "Ten Times People Read a Legacy Media Article and Double Checked that it wasn't a Babylon Bee Article" epidsode.
I do that 10 times a week lol
Things have gotten so stupid, for some people, it's hard to tell what's satire anymore.
Some sites now say some of their articles are satire but they are not going to tell you which ones. I just quit using their sites.
@@donnastokes-manning6175 This is the best time to be alive. We gotta laugh at the crazy and be thankful for truth coming out.
Poe's Law.
@@andymanaus1077 Cool, I didn't know there was a name for it. Mix Poe's law with a bit of Trevor's axium and we get peak clown world.
Ask them to double down
Unsubscribed!!!! I Thought you guys were real news.
LOL
🤣🤣
Hahaha
ROTFL!!!
Ha!😂
I love how the bee just sits back and trolls everyone... The retweets/comments of these people are priceless
It's getting more difficult to tell what is parody and what is not.
Imagine having so little faith in your ideology that a bee and a cat make you go insane on Twitter.
The only time the Babylon bee is not satire is when it is prophecy
I definitely have to stop and see who wrote the headline and then feel better and laugh when I see that it was the Babylon bee.
To be honest, it’s hard to tell sometimes.
To be fair real life sometimes seems to be a Babylon article
A while ago The Bee posted an article about Elevation Church putting a water slide into their church baptism. I have a friend who was lesbian complaining about how unbiblical and sinful Elevation was for disgracing Christianity in such a way.
Amazed that satire is still legal
This is my favorite news channel.
The voiceover edits for the naughty words are almost as hilarious as the people thinking the Bee is real.
We need more of this.
Honestly, sometimes I think the BB articles are real just off the headline, then I bee like, hey that's from Bablylon Bee! it's most definitely real .... satire.
The problem is that many of these are believable. I 100% believe Kabbalah would reference Jan 6 during a speech on Pearl Harbor.
Even 10 years ago, most of these would be unthinkable. But does anyone doubt that some lunatic on the mainstream would do or say some of these?
There has been too many times where they write to be funny but its all too real. This is the same for Dilbert cartoons.
I think you mean Kamala there buddy. Kabbalah (קבלה) is Jewish mysticism. It's not even evil, it's as if you said "magic over there", but without the witch connotations.
@@shragamildiner8472 thats a valid point, jews dont deserve to be compared to that mistake.
The only way not to be constantly angry is reading the Bible and the Babylon Bee, these guys are hysterically funny. May God bless them!
Bro Pedro Pascal really be workin at the Babylon Bee… smh my head
Love me some Babylon Bee. Keep up the good work!
My aunt shared the story about the Satanic Starbucks cups and ranted about how evil it was. When I informed her that the article was satire and it was a joke, she said she didn't care the reason the cups were made because they were Satanic. She doesn't know what satire is. 🤦♀️
Ha ha ha
But those cups are satanic
I get all my news from Babylon Bee headlines
When Brittney Griner fled back to Russia, she drove to Alaska and swam across.
It's winter and she can dribble across the frozen strait.
Whenever I share a Babylon Bee article I always include the header of LOL, just to make sure that everyone knows that I know it's a joke. Also, the never forget January 6th mantra comes in handy because it's my wedding anniversary. It sort of ruined it, but at the same time, my husband will never forget it.
They need to make a monument which showcases the three broken windows of January 6th. RIP windows. Forget Ashli Babbitt.
Love seeing Chandler on here. She's funny.
The Gas Stove thing would have been a great story for the Bee but the government beat you to it ! LMAO
Tbh, sometimes your articles are so magnificent I’ve had to double check and make sure it was you because it seemed real.
Being fooled by the Babylon Bee either means I'm stupid or that they are very good at what they do. I'm vain enough to believe the latter.
Honesty now it's not crazy to assume the latter.
Guys I've also done the reverse of this. After enjoying a review of Bee headlines I've switched over to Breitbart to catch the daily top news stories (that matter to some), and lost myself in the stories so much that I laughed, thinking that I was still reading the Bee. Very fun. This has happened at least 3 time. (of course we can also put that down to my early onset dementia, if there is such a thing)
less than 6 months ago I had to explain to my wife's 70 year old aunt that the Onion was satire when she was talking about Chicago needing to use a front end loader to scoop up bullet casings on the street after a shooting, but our world has become so screwed up that the BB keeps making articles that end up coming true, the Onion never had that problem
I always post them thinking people would get the joke 🤣
Are you sure it wasn't Harry aiming the gun at the Corgi???
I’ve caught myself getting pissed at some of your articles… But then I see the bee and laugh at myself. Lol
I admit when I saw a few of the things they did in the beginning I thought it was real. In FACT they are the reason I always read the ABOUT section of any site putting out news. That keeps me grounded. Of course some things you KNOW are bonkers. Like ‘Lizard People’… come on people, think logically.
I keep watching you guys are hilarious hilarious
When you write satire but end up writing the news instead.
I ❤ the Bee!!! 🐝
The Bee helps me keep my lunacy in a truly insane world.
Sharing with Grandma now!! Wait for it!! 🤣🤣🤣
Scary how easy people believe the first thing they see or hear without any doubt
You earned a subscriber for the Kevin Sorbo in "Hercules: The Legendary Journeys" in the background.
On #3 - Kamala actually did compare Dec 7, 1941; Sept 11, 2001 and Jan 6, 2021 in a midterm election cycle campaign speech.
😂😂 So reporters don’t have to really do research 🧐😂😂
When you get right down to it, isn't there a little Uter in all of us?😉
I've had to tell friends yours is a satirical site. I will check first before sharing, even checking what the site's "About Us" section.
I mostly see the Bee as reporting on stuff that hasn't happened yet..
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤐🤐🤐🤐🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Still waiting for my daily Bee newspaper to show up, I keep paying the guy monthly but nothing ever gets delivered🤔
It's just not unreal enough to actually feel fake.
Hell isn't a curse word. It's a place .
okay boomer
@Y2K Vaporwave shouldn't of bleeped it out
Actually it isn't a place yet. It won't exist until the End of Days when Jesus returns to take up His throne on earth.
@Jeremy if it doesn't exist now, then where do the unrighteous dead go?
It's where liberals go when they die...
You could even say they *got stung.*
The leaf blower one - "might be extreme"...LOL!
So many of these posts/retweets start off, "If this is real..." or "If this is legit..." On the one hand, I applaud them for their level of skepticism and awareness of their own ignorance. On the other hand, why do people seem to think they have time to comment with their own two cents but not the time to do a quick check to verify the source? 🤦♀️
When Journalists don't check their sources
The problem with sharing satire is that sooner or later you run into Poe's Law. The way things are these days, it's generally sooner than later.
I thought the Babylon Bee was real when the pride parade learned how Christians used the rainbow. 🤦♂️. Now I just really want that article to be real. 🤣😂🤣
People also like to be trolls because they can hide behind their computer
Babylon bee is just as real as my pregnant uncle.
It’s real. Babylon Bee just THINKS it’s fake.
Took a screenshot of the puppy murder and sent it to my wife. She totally fell for it. 😂
3:09 To be fair that is absolutely something I could see her doing.
Not my little sister panicking and becoming angry at Netflix for murdering puppies when she heard the audio from this video...
I like the National Lampoon’s reference with the Corgi!
Sadly, I have sent several of your headlines and lead images to a lot of my friends and two different friends thought I was sharing real news. One responded that he couldn't find that info anywhere else... and the other just assumed it was true and started ranting about how terrible it was... I either have friends with below average intelligence or they totally don't get my sense of humor.
If this video is true... people can be really stoopid.
The Onion and The Babylon Bee have helped me know whether or not I should interact with someone who posts and/or comments as if these are true stories.
i went to a bible study once and the guy stated some fact. afterward my friend told me that the thing he was talking about way from the Babylon Bee.
the achors poop their pants headline was pure perfection.
people falling to satire is funnier then the titles. 😂
CNN even thought "the onion" was real news.
I didn’t even know what happened on January 6th until the next day
capitalizing the first letter of each word is very likely automatic in this case. If you are typing on your phone and you have your settings set to capitalizing the first letter of each word, then this is what you get.
I'm not gonna lie, I see stuff from the Bee a lot and there's a chunk of it that if it wasn't labeled from the Babylon Bee, I would definitely think it's real. The world's become such a circus that even some of your satire that a couple years ago I would have considered utterly ridiculous and preposterous I now read like "Yeah, I can see them doing that." 😂😂😂
Now I'm more interested in how many have came true
😅😂🤣 found y’all from the Doc Rich channel. Y’all crack me up. Californian going to Texas BBQ 😅😂😂😂 he got on that meat 👏👏😅
honestly sometimes it is easy for fall for Babylon Bee articles mostly cause it feels like that something they would do. Like I have had it happened where I gotten mad but realize who it from and like ohhhhhh.
7:33 you forgot to cover a swear word.
so happy to see that someone is a ZELDA fan!
I’m like, what’s the word, fascinated like by like how like the real world is like like the Babylon Bee, like.
Yinz should do season two of California to Texas
Those folks vote 🤣
The 3rd one sounds 100% real hahaaaa like I can see that happening.
Twitter is supposed to be very hot take based. That's kinda how the whole platform works.
I refuse to accept that Timpani is not real.
Babylon Bee is real (really great)
The Ol' man told me Ringo Starr was being targeted because Yellow Submarine wasn't inclusive.
I fell for it.
I think the one about the 2 year old was joking as well. People who use "hooman" say that when they are pretending to be a cat or a dog. Or, in this case, maybe a 2 year old.
Makes me wonder if anyone thought Jonathan Swift was being serious with "A Modest Proposal"...
Wait... They didn't approve the death penalty for people who use thier leafblowers before 8 am?!?! );
My husband was really good at trolling people with Onion articles. It was great.
Love the Bee!!!
