    I’m kinda in awe how Elon finds every day new ways to be a utter and complete piece of shit.

      I’m not, only because I’ve never once been in awe of any damn thing that piece of shit has ever done stolen credit for, and don’t intend to start now.

      This too is greed. Wikipedia is too accurate, and he doesn’t want the truth to be remembered.

    Elon takes aim and the media are right there to make his job easier. Thank goodness there’s reporting on everything he wants.

    Crowdsourced information does put a bit of a damper on the whole “history written by the victors” thing.

    Guy who owns biased platform claims other platform that has negative views on him is biased. Someone tell Elon that if he donates enough he can have controlling shares of Wiki. He can’t, but he doesn’t have to know that.

      He’s being filed by a constant stream of validation from musk simps, yes men, now the next POTUS, so he thinks he’s unstoppable.

    Well, I hate to admit it, but I’ve never donated to Wikipedia.

    But this just made me set up a recurring donation. Streisand effect sorta, I guess.

    Fuck Elon Musk.

    Mmm,

    Mmhmm

    Oh

    Musk’s actions and expressed views have made him a polarizing figure. He has been criticized for making unscientific and misleading statements, including COVID-19 misinformation; affirming antisemitic and transphobic comments, and promoting conspiracy theories. His ownership of Twitter has been controversial because of the layoffs of a large number of employees, an increase in posts containing hate speech, misinformation and disinformation on the website, and changes to website features, including verification.

    Ah, that’s probably why. People are allowed to expose him without being censored on wiki.

    “Wikipedia is built on the premise that it becomes better when more people of different backgrounds—including political persuasions—source, edit, curate and research content. Our equity goal advances that. The ‘Safety & Inclusion’ goal (now titled ‘Safety & Integrity’ in our 2024-2025 plan) is focused on ensuring that people are able to freely access and safely contribute to knowledge on Wikipedia in a changing legal and policy environment globally.”

    Magoo: RAAAAGGGGEEEEE!!! WHITE CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIANS are the only REAL people!! WE’RE the only people that matter!!

          And liberal sources don’t?

          • The laptop is Russian disinformation.

          • The vaccine will prevent you from getting Covid.

          • The Steele dossier proves that Trump is in bed with the Russians.

          That’s just off the top of my head.

          Mr. Musk believes that Wikipedia has become a mouthpiece for the left. Based on their list of Reliable Sources, how do you counter his argument?

            The laptop is Russian disinformation.

            Which laptop?

            The vaccine will prevent you from getting Covid.

            Please read up on evolution, and herd immunity. A reputable source making this claim was probably using it as shorthand because stating that “The COVID vaccine and boosters are effective at reducing the infection and propagation of specific common strains of covid 19 to the point where you may not feel the effects or shed enough virus to infect other people” isn’t really as catching of a headline.

            The Steele dossier proves that Trump is in bed with Russians.

            I have yet to see counter evidence to the claims made in the Steele Dossier, and Steele himself still stands behind the report, which can not be said for certain trump agents who falsified Ukrainian corruption claims about Hunter and Joe Biden.

        Reliable sources means outlets that don’t outright lie or over embellish. I think you’ll find that most conservative media outlets tend to do exactly those two things. And I would 100% count both Reason and The Hill as conservative media outlets that walk the fine line.

    I actually wasn’t going to donate to Wikipedia this year because I’m pretty strapped but fuck it. I’m donating more than I did last year I can put more stuff on a credit card this season instead.

    Fuck Elon Musk. And fuck anyone who buys his stupid fucking cars.

      Right on. Consider also contributing to an article. Volunteers work tirelessly to filter the misinformation pushed by stakeholders like Elon Musk and the army he can afford to employ to fuck up articles full-time.
