Do you guys ever stop and think "Holy fuck these people are shaping how the next generation views the world"? When you go to google and search for something a Wikipedia article is generally at the top or near the top of the search results. If you use Alexa to search for something it's the same result Wikipedia at the top. This freakish communist anime fan is literally forming kids who search for shits views of the world. Horrifying. The future is so fucked.

It's the anniversary of 2022 Buffalo shooting and I ended up on the wiki page.

It's the overabundance of citations that really adds the chef's kiss here. When you compare this to serious articles like World War 2, Ovis Aries, Pythagoras Theorem and such you would never see such a orgy of random garbage thrown as proof. Because truth stands on it's own, but bullshit needs volume to make itself sound real.

Wikipedia forbids "original research", but wikipedos do this insidious thing where they add seven sources and parse together a sentence that didn't exist in any of the sources, and somehow it's not original research.

Example: Chud Wojak supported the nazis.[1][2][3]
[1]There was a presence of nazis in Wojak's hometown
[2]Wojak was very patriotic
[3]Nazis drew their support from patriots

I'm just repeating myself at this point but the fact these fucks can get away with what is basically just libel is insane. This article is heavily implying Tucker was responsible for inspiring a racially motivated mass shooting when he had no part in it. I remember the Wikipedia page for Libsoftiktok all but stated she was a domestic terrorist or something like that and there is zero repercussions for them lying like this. No one is held responsible at all. They are allowed to lie and because the left dominates all the media in America save for Fox news they can just keep doing.

Didn't they also try to tie some mass shooting to libs of tiktok too? I know they tried extremely hard to paint her as a domestic terrorist on her Wikipedia page.

There is this subsection:

There is no evidence that the shooter was even remotely inspired by anything LoTT said or did. All Wikipedia offers is that she "received renewed media attention" after the shooting, and that she continued operating the account as normal afterwards. The nonsense concept of "stochastic terrorism" is invoked at the end, where by simply expressing an opinion you might inspire someone somewhere to violence and therefore it's all your fault.

I've noticed this awhile back but don't think I have posted about this. In the articles for various elections, under endorsements, various editors will sometimes throw in negative statements about the endorser.

This edit (with the endorsement itself) was added here. In fact though, this is a false statement. General Flynn is not a convicted felon. His plea was never actually accepted by the court, as he withdrew it before sentencing. The government then dropped the case (after Barr reevaluated it as a non crime), but Trump pardoned him before it was completed. So in no sense is General Flynn a 'convicted felon'.

It isn't just Flynn though, this abusing of the endorsements category on various election pages to push POV, especially in 'wiki voice'. This being Wikipedia though, expect it to get worse.

Anyone Trump-adjacent who wasn't a total snake gets this treatment. It's why people act like Giuliani is literally Hitler and admonish him for cleaning up NYC back when he was mayor (Granted his actions during the 2020 election were very lazy), and Sotrmy Daniels, her now convict lawyer, and Michael Cohen get all the praise; as well as that Hohol general Alex Vindeman or whatever the fuck his name is.

This Wikipedia editor of 16 years wrote a long message to founder Jimmy Wales, explaining why they quit the site.

This took place a while ago, but for shits and giggles I checked toxic masculinity article, and they had added token "criticism" section which pretty much states "only alt right chuds dont think its real".

I thought it sounded familiar (IIRC, a few other terf-y users have been banned but I could not remember another admin), and while looking it up, I stumbled into this:

I love that on Wikipedia you can't 'canvass' ie, inform eligible voters (I am sure team tranny did, but not in public) .

Do you have the link for the original post? Tried looking for it on the user's page but couldn't find it.

It's a pretty decent summary.

I'm hearing from a couple of friends the current Wikipedo large scale flame war is the page for Yasuke after the trailer for the certainly mediocre next Assassins Creed. This is all in the span of six hours:
