You can. But not by me; I'm not a global mod.
Btw, your theory is dependent on randomly pulling the number 42M out of random sociological and historical data. They might not all be the Onion, but each is dubious for its own reason. What's the endgame here? Satan returning because 42 is popping up a few places?
Also, you may have discarded the Onion link, but the fact that you used it in the first place speaks to a much, much more disconcerting trend in your research habits (or lack thereof) and threshold for belief.

I concede on that particular instance being a hoax.I'll also admit I was didn't even read the article, considering that it would be the greatest tragedy in American history. I thought it was a global culmination of deaths in that one day.
EDIT: GHENGIS KHAN killed about 42 million people in his lifetime!! He killed [b]over a million in one single day the Afghanistan Massacre!!!!

Not helping your case.
Also...You avoided reading an article because it represented potentially the biggest modern tragedy of our era?! Just gonna bury your head in the sand on it, but still post is as evidence of your half-baked conspiracy theory?! That's like the oddest contradiction I've ever seen. "I refuse to read this, but it supports my point."
Also, what does Ghengis Khan have to do with this? And how do we know it was 42 million? Was anyone counting? What were the census numbers from the era? Is this a sign of end times, or a heavily approximated snippet from an unrelated historical period? More baseless drivel. Or was it just to compare it to what you thought was the legitimate Onion figure? If so, it changes none of my points.
