“This is not the first time Musk has gone after the site. In December, he posted on X, “Stop donating to Wokepedia.” And that wasn’t even his first bad Wikipedia pun. “I will give them a billion dollars if they change their name to Dickipedia,” he wrote, in an October, 2023, post. It seemed to be an ego thing at first. Musk objected to being described on his page as an “early investor” in Tesla, rather than as a founder, which is how he prefers to be identified, and seemed frustrated that he couldn’t just buy the site. But lately Musk’s beef has merged with a general conviction on the right that Wikipedia—which, like all encyclopedias, is a tertiary source that relies on original reporting and research done by other media and scholars—is biased against conservatives.”

      Holy shit, what a sad website. Just a few random snippets:

      Marijuana is a highly addictive drug that causes (…) violence and violent fits

      Marriage is the divinely ordained covenant between one man and one woman

      The Bible, being the most comprehensive transcendent moral authority

      🤮

        Many vaccines, including the Covid vaccines, are based on aborted fetal tissue, apparently to try to increase public acceptance of abortion.

        I’m not sure if this is Poe’s law in effect or if people are actually this stupid. I’m afraid it’s the latter.
