Thanks for the reminder. Just donated!
Wikipedia is arguably the best website on all of the internet.
Like, if you wanted one website to survive the apocalypse or whatever, it’s probably Wikipedia.
I had an uncle who was a rabid Trump supporter. Ultranationalist, White Supremacist and Bible thumper. (its even weirder that my uncle is a Canadian living in the US who refuses to get US citizenship).
he moved to Texas because he wanted to get away from the “morally bankrupt liberals” in California, moved to Texas because Elon went there. I think the only person he loved more than Trump was Elon.
then suddenley, one day he told the family that he wasn’t following Elon anymore, and that Elon is evil. I’d really like to hear what he has to say about it. Except there is zero contact because the guy is so deranged he made death threats against my mother. So we’re keeping him at length and not giving him any sense of welcome that he can come back into our lives, or worse yet, come visit physically.
still, would be interesting to see into the mind of a lunatic.
I’ve never donated to Wikipedia. I have now donated to Wikipedia.
This man did more for Wikipedia than those annoying Wikipedia messages could ever do
I like Wikipedia but I’m still not going to donate. They’ve got many millions and a bunch of millionaires on the board. They don’t need my money!
These millionaires may or may not do anything for Wikipedia.
They don’t make profit, there is no risk of “over donating”
The risk is that they vote for higher salaries for themselves! They already earn way more than most people!
Can we have some context for that picture?

Ah, thanks. I wasn’t sure which rich person I was supposed to recognize from this.

For those of you with workplace donation platforms, Wikipedia/wikimedia are usually registered and eligible for company match, so is the web archive.
I dunno, doesn’t seem like the conservapedia shithole likes elon much either.
What’s the controversy? I mean from what I see, it’s a bit pushy, but you only see it if you use Wikipedia

Runs platform based on lies and hates platform based on truth. Check notes yeah that about sums it up.
