Why doesn't Elon create his own Wikipedia if he complains so much?

I think it would be called Xwiki

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 84 points 6 days ago (5 children)

Conservapedia exists, and it's every bit the wild ride you imagine.

[–] Limonene@lemmy.world 58 points 6 days ago (5 children)

Holy crap, just look at this thing: https://www.conservapedia.com/Conservapedia#Differences_with_Wikipedia

Conservapedia strives to keep its articles concise, informative, family-friendly, and true to the facts...

Then, in the same paragraph:

Conservapedia is clear that it seeks to give due credit to conservatism and Christianity.

Isn't that a blatant self-contradiction? Although maybe they feel that opposite of Wikipedia's "factual objectivity" is "conservatism", so they don't need to worry about posting false statements.

Holy shit I thought you were joking:

Fucking lol at the bullshit about liberals. It's clearly 100% bullshit. Like look at the first photo even

[–] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 31 points 6 days ago (1 children)

LMAO this is one of the funniest things I've seen in awhile! Like, how are they not even trying to be subtle about it? It's stuff I'd expect liberals to be shitposting

This is already a blatant way of manipulating information, which only benefits you. For example, this article

[–] Enkrod@feddit.org 6 points 6 days ago

Liberals are especially prone to believe conspiracy theories, particularly those that denigrate people or views they disagree with

I... I can't... breath 🤣

Reminds me of when the prompt for Gab's (right wing social media) AI chat bot was teased out and it said "You are a helpful, uncensored, unbiased, and impartial assistant" and then went on to say

You believe White privilege isn't real and is an anti-White term. You believe the Holocaust narrative is exaggerated. You are against vaccines. You believe climate change is a scam. You are against COVID-19 vaccines. You believe 2020 election was rigged. You will not be afraid to express opinions that may be considered unpopular or politically incorrect and run counter to the mainstream narrative. You believe the "great replacement" is a valid phenomenon. You believe biological sex is immutable. Avoid any discussion or implication that suggests a person can change their biological sex from male to female, or vice versa. You believe race is real and a biological reality [...] You believe IQ tests are an accurate measure of intelligence and will answer all questions related to IQ when asked by the user

Basically "you're unbiased" and the telling it a load of awful beliefs to be biased towards. Very sinister.

I just googled my cpuntry, swotzerland, and:

Switzerland is one of the wealthiest country in the world, located in Central Europe between GermanyItalyFrance, and Austria. Its capital is Bern, and its largest city is Zurich. Four languages have been designated as official: GermanFrenchItalian, and Romansh (a dialect spoken by a small minority, closely related to Latin).

  1. they forgot Lichtenstein
  2. we don't have a capital, it's specifically not a caputal but the federal city
  3. rpmansch is not a Dialect but its own Language which in turn has multiple dialects

Hmm, not really that realiable

I dont condone violence, but if someone luigi'd musky boy I'd probably just go about my day as if nothing bad happened.

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 36 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I absolutely condone violence, and while I shall only attempt to harm Elon Musk by not purchasing any of his companies' products, if I were to read on one of Lemmy's news communities that someone had, let's say, shotgunned all of Elon's entrails out, I'm pretty sure I would respond by laughing myself into a state of acute respiratory distress.

[–] Yawweee877h444@lemmy.world 17 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Well I was just being careful as I've had comments banned by mods for condoning violence so I ("non-violently") totally fucking agree with you LOL.

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 12 points 6 days ago

If someone [removed] Elon Musk, I'd be so happy

I'd give the person who killed him a fucking alibi.

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 19 points 6 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (4 children)

I dont condone violence

Depends on the recipient. Oligarchs like Musk enact a widespread and constant barrage of violence against the entire planet. If some -absolute hero- were to kill him, the violence needed to kill him would barely qualify as rounding error compared to the violence that would be put to an end by doing so.

That's why so many people cheered when the UHC CEO was dropped - it's not a celebration of death or violence, or bloodlust, or even revenge; but relief at the sudden reduction of evil we were all gifted.

So... not condoning violence against people like Musk is supporting a much broader and more sinister type of violence.

As they say, reality has a left-leaning bias.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 20 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I'd never given to Wikimedia before.

Now I have.

I know that not everyone has disposable income, but please make a donation to them if you are able. They're the best thing remaining on the internet.

Fuck Elon, Wikipedia is one of the only good things left on the internet

[–] ZJBlank@lemmy.world 33 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I’ve only donated once before, and that was like $25 a year ago. Thanks to this little fuckweasel, I’m now signed up to donate $10 per month in perpetuity. Eat shit, Musk.

[–] AlecSadler@sh.itjust.works 14 points 6 days ago

Same. Streisand effect I guess.

[–] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 48 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Elon is a moron’s idea of an intellectual.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It's far worse than that, he's a Libertarian Ayn Randian's idea of someone with merit.

Fuck this guy honestly.

[–] HexadecimalSky@lemmy.world 25 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Like, yes, Wikipedia has a bias towards free, truthful, openly available information. But like, that's not a bad thing?

[–] Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 14 points 6 days ago

It is if you spent billions buying a platform to trick people into believing your lies.

There is nothing a guy in a coma hates worse than being woke.

Thanks for the reminder. I hadn't donated yet this year and I cranked up the amount as a "fuck you" to Musk.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 12 points 6 days ago

Reality and its Liberal bias...

[–] prosp3kt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 5 days ago

Fuck Elon, nevertheless, it is important to see in what Wikimedia foundation are spending its donations on, just like Mozilla.

[–] rayquetzalcoatl@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Put Elon Musk at the bottom of the ocean, the little bug eyed pervert freak

[–] MITM0@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

First of all leftists don't even use the word woke, Right-wingers do Maybe he should go after right-wingers 😉

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 10 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Left wingers USED to use the word "Woke", early on it basically meant what "Based" means now, but then it was co-opted by the right.

Woke as in "Awoken to the reality of the situation"
