Ah, fuck. I guess I'm back here once again to call out one of my favorite pet peeves. A callback to my quote several months ago:
It doesn't help either that a bunch of their featured articles display open, blatant favoritism in the selection process towards certain users and admins such as the admin Premeditated Chaos with her autistic obsession over Alexander McQueen

And the featured article today, which to no surprise is....

And, rounding up the usual suspect.
Screenshot (833).webp

There's even more if you scroll up on the editing history.
Wikipedia never fails to undercut the actual editors with how much nepotistic bias they're showing towards their admin with the amount of featured articles being churned out about her autistic obsession. May the eternal favoritism reign supreme!

I'm not going to go through revision by revision changes, you can if you want to. But I'm mostly gonna post stream of consciousness style. Some man wiser than me told that books about history tell more about the time they were written than the actual historical subject, which I thought was very profound. Kind of obvious, perhaps. In Soviet historiography, much emphasis was given to peasant revolts, Soviet schoolkids learned about Spartakus at young age. Before civil rights, slavery was depicted in Southern school books as semi-benign institution (at least ones written by Ulrich B. Phillips).

I don't think I need to belabor this point. To come back to the original link: Go back a few years of the article, and you'll see a semi valid article about numerous contacts of Arabs and Nazis. I mean, it's just a fact. But now that you read it, due to recent...occurrences, there's new narrative of Nazis oppressing the arabs, and proud Arabs fighting the Nazis (Article images depict an Iranian gassed by the Nazis and Muslim members of French resistance). Now the narrative of antisemitic arabs has changed into proud oppressed PoCs fighting racists (nazis and zionazis).

I'm not even a philosemite, I just find how malleable the historical consensus is a fascinating thing.

I notice the same image occurs twice in this article, with different captions:
View attachment 7717043View attachment 7717044
It is both the first and the last image in this article. I don't know if there is a policy against duplicating images but there probably should be.

The "over emphases on this image" link in the first caption goes nowhere. It is an internal link to #2022 but no such section exists.

See what I mean? Picture of Arab Leader and Hitler meeting = Bibi bad.

Which he is. But not for getting in a slap fight with other Jews about how to politicize Holocaust in the most effective way.

Wikipedia spent a long while building up a store of goodwill and trust. Now, motivated editors burn that trust by doing things like spending a decade transforming the site’s presentation of Mao’s legacy from condemnation to hagiography. [...] In 2025, as far as Wikipedia is concerned, the legacy of one of the worst mass murderers in history is now that of “a political intellect, theorist, military strategist, poet, and visionary.”

Oi I thought our boy Simon was taking a break because he was getting harassed about "things he never said," last time I checked his talk page.

Seriously this dude bothers me. Nobody on Wikipedia is at all concerned that the guy saying "erm guys maybe don't be so mean to pedos" also wants to remove access to information about grooming gangs in the UK? 𝘕𝘰𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 thinks this is a conflict of interest over there?

Wait there's other Jews who politicize the Holocaust in more effective ways? I thought they were all just members of the Likud Party.

For the uninitiated; he was kinda like /fit/'s answer to Jace Connors for a while, before he fucking died in a Thai sauna/was murdered over a drug deal gone bad (lot of lore to this one shame he FUCKING DIED).
Point being he's an IRL meme character, why the hell does he have a fat ass wiki page?

No I've been saying for awhile that their whole effort at "you know who else hated pedophiles? Hitler!" is NOT going to turn out how they think.

For whatever reason the article starts talking about the LIBYAN GENOCIDE and how the Eyeties inspired the Holocaust I guess? Hitler outright stated that his inspiration for the KZs came from the Soviet labour camps and probably didn't actually care about Jews being rounded up and killed.

At least the shortwave radio broadcasts of Germany to the Arab world talking about the necessity of killing all the Jews isn't made up and probably resonated with a lot of people at the time. Buuuuuuuuuuuuut

The impact of these broadcasts have been called into question, specifically on whether they caused or were in some way responsible for a rise in radical antisemitic hatred post-war. The historian Joel Beinin questions the conclusions of Jeffrey Herf – author of Nazi Propaganda in the Arab World – stating that there were few radios in the Arab World, most owned by Jews or Allied troops.[79] For example, Herf argues that Sayyid Qutb, an Islamist who is commonly attributed to be an inspiration for radical Islam, could have been radicalized by listening to Nazi propaganda during this time in Egypt during the war. Beinin disagrees, arguing that evidence for Qutb's antisemitism and increasing radicalism does not exists until – at earliest – 1948, the beginning of the Arab-Israeli conflict; therefore Herf's suggestion of a Nazi inspired Qutb is simply conjecture.[80]

Netanyahu said, to utilize Holocaust as a club against Arabs, that Arabs convinced Hitler to start the Holocaust. Which caused some controversy for being too blatantly made up even for the Jews.

I thought I heard it was the Armenian genocide.

Do Turks count as Arabs nowadays or not? All you meatbags look alike to me.
