Facts don't care about your feelings, Elon.
Donate to wikipedia.
They're just mad that reality has a left-wing bias.
They're mostly just mad that it tells the objective reality instead of parroting their lies.
One thing I love in Wikipedia, is even pages whose interpretation I disagree with (and yes, Wikipedia absolutely has interpretation), tend to have enough detail that I can learn interesting things and get a feel for what we do know and what we don't. Especially if I stumble upon some adjacent pages that have a very different take!
There are right-wing US conservatives who are freaking out that other countries are boycotting Musk/Tesla, and calling it some left-wing psyOps.
Like Musk literally did the Hitler salute TWICE. The second time was in case you were mistaken.
republicans also thing that all the protests all over the world are paid for by democrats lol.
Conservativism is rooted in vibes and feelings, and false narratives to support those feelings. This is why they hate knowledge and people who attain it.
It's a disease of the mind, it's like they would rather be animal than human
Fascists always have problems with publicly available knowledge.
I happily donate to Wikipedia every year :)
Started a monthly 3 dollar donation when baby Nazi started shit talking Wikipedia some months ago.
Me too - they need it now more than ever when Trump and Musk starts focusing on Wikipedia.
Donate. How many times a day do you use wikipedia? It would be shit if it became another Fandom style wiki. With an ad every 3rd word.
We use Wikipedia a lot, mostly to understand references from another country or culture, the rest to answer the question: "Who the hell is s/he..." The latter enquiries are often interesting, but rarely resolve the real issue, which is "... and why is s/he famous?" At any rate, we send a goodly annual donation, because without Wikipedia, we'd be even more out of touch than we already are!
Can't shake the feeling Musk doesn't like Wikipedia because Musk only likes facts he can use.
'which is how he prefers to be identified' ... hmnnn - so he CHOOSES to IDENTIFY as one thing and doesn't like it when people don't allow him to use his preferred identificaiton?
I also choose to identify as the founder of Tesla.
Enjoy my small donation Wikipedia.
Just donated. You should too.
I love donating to Wikipedia because there’s so few FREE things anymore, and it’s one that benefits every single person on the planet.
Have been donating to them yearly for a few years after they started their donation campaign. I forget how much I donate, but I'm considering raising my yearly donation now xD
I appreciate you.
Shit like this is why I donate to Wikipedia.
Fuck off and die, nazi scum.
Just donated to Wikipedia. Will do every time this fuckers brings it up
The fascists want to shut down any information source that can prove they are lying.
History is written by the victors.
"Hmm 🤔, I'm rich, that should make me a victor, ergo..."
I miss the times when people like this was seen as mentally ill.
