What the hell does the house oversight comitee have to do with a private endeavor?
Even if there was such bias, doesn’t the 1st amendment cover it, as it does Fox, for example?
- Nothing
- They just needed an excuse. You believing it isn’t a concern.
forgot about Epstein yet?
There is nothing to investigate, Wikipedia is a private organization and if it has a bias it is none of the government’s business.
The party of “small government?” “Don’t tread on me?” What the hell happened, Republicans?
Facism happened. Governement run by Captialists.
Yep back in the 1930s.
pretty much predicted by Jack London in The Iron Heel in 1908 but people have been saying it longer than that.
Yep. The United States was one of the bigest inspirations for Nazi Germany. It goes back to the countries founding unfortunately.
They only ever cared about white supremacy. All that other stuff was bullshit.
That’s only when it’s private companies they like.
That was always an obvious lie.
Is there something illegal about that? If Wikipedia has organizational bias, it’s covered by their first amendment right.
You have “The right to free speech (as long as you’re not dumb enough to actually try it)”.
The Clash
Oh, boy, you must be new here.
rights for thee not for me
I’d say when open source seems organized against you, you might be the problem.
Reality has a non-frothing-at-the-mouth-oblivious-cult-member bias to it
But that really is a bias too. Everything has a bias relative to most existing points of view. That’s why the “free speech” thing was invented, because when your world is larger than one isolated village or even one isolated, even if moving, royal court, then you can’t make everyone think the same subjectively correct way. Free speech was a way for nations to survive modernization. There are more dimensions to the world than any single person understands enough to not be what you said. Everyone, and I mean everyone, is an idiot in something and would want to shut everyone up in that dimension.
Not only it’s a right first and foremost of those you disagree with, though, but it also can’t ever be based on good will. It can only be based on inability to break by force. Like any other institution.
I think many bad things in our reality are due to reliance on good will having been covertly put into many key places of the mechanisms.
Fuck you fuck you fuck you. Investigate Truth Social, Twitter, the Smithsonian, the FBI, the DOJ, the President, Congress, the DoD, the DoE, the NSA, and the Supreme Court, if you are worried about bias.
might as well say hunt down and take out
Scientific proof that we are in the dumbest timeline.
aaaand just donated another $100 to Wikipedia.
If the US tries to kill Wikipedia I’m actually forming a militia
They can try… Wikipedia has been bolstering themselves against this exact kind of attack for many years. They’ve made the entirety of the site completely downloadable for literally anyone to make and keep a copy and lots of people do (though the more the better).
The Wikimedia corporation that runs the actual site may have to ensure that it’s incorporated in a different country though.
I have an offline copy with no pictures from like February.
But if Wikipedia is ever shut down then there goes the best resource for recording human society and history
If they cant manage to shut down TPB 🏴☠️, they sure as shit sint gonna be able to shut down Wikipedia.
They’re scared of self-governing NGOs and free fonts of knowledge.
In other words, they’re not publishing the propaganda of the new fascist US government?
The biases:
- Calls Israel’s genocide a genocide.
- Does not state, that the “judeo-christian” god is real, and that the creation myth is real. Does not state that evolution is a “discredited theory”, using arguments from the Discovery Institute as citations.
- States that trans people exists, citations point to actual studies, articles don’t automatically redirect to an article about “narcissistic personality disorder”, currently existing article on NPD does not list “gender confusion” as a potential sympthom, and no links to websites of christian “psychologists” (read: theologists with a doctorate) offering “therapy” (read: exorcism, forced prayer, forced conversion to fundamentalist christianity.
- Does not call liberalism a “childish psychosis”.
- Lists actual COVID death numbers, does not call mRNA vaccines “modified RNA”, does not reserve autism spectrum disorder only for boys that are extremely low functioning.
don’t forget climate change
So what if it was?
to be fair their thing is whining about shit for a day then moving on to different shit to whine about
On July 4, 2026, nothing happened on Lafayette Square in Washington, DC, USA.
(And if something happened, its because they were viOlEnT riOToRs and we had to send in the tanks to restore LaW aNd oRdEr!!!)
