Re: Thoughts on Reddit?

Here's a short compilation of the stupidest threads I have seen on Reddit: https://old.reddit.com/r/doomer/comments/wp6ou3/i_feel_drained/ An attempt at some sort of anti-motivational quote with an image of Joseph Goebbels, Nazi propagandist. That is a bit of "ironic" Nazism using what looks like a...

Re: Sanctioned Suicide meat preservative overdose cult & whitewashing by Wikipedians (general thread, Kevinsanc, Freedom

Hm? What stories? Stories about two dozen sexual harassments committed by admins and users on Wikipedia, along with a pedophilia scandal, and which could really entail massive public shock and the subsequent demise of Wikipedia. In fact I even think that it will result in the US Government setting ...

Re: Paid Editing on WP is permissible

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Society_for_Krishna_Consciousness Is just too friendly and loving to be written by anyone other than members. Dozens, maybe hundreds, of them. ISKCON has produced a number of scandals in its long history but the few this article mentions get "kid glove" t...

Re: Sergei Brin is on The List

I'm not sure if this is off-topic or not, but I get those sketchy download button ads from Google daily. Sometimes I put them into virustotal.com and half the time, they're malware. Recently, I've been getting ads for supposed "news sites" that when clicked literally lead to fake virus pop-ups. And...

Shouldn't this be moved to the Off Topic forum?
Nope, because Google and Wikipedia are joined to the hip via Google infoboxes, which heavily use Wikipedia as a source.

Re: Wikipedia begging for money

They really need to grow up......Jimmy Wales, noted Ayn Rand fanboy writing "We're still not on the market" is utterly hilarious if you know his history and the early history of Wikipedia.

Re: What really happened on October 7? - The Grayzone

The Grayzone is becoming a major magnet for nutcases, government meddling, and conspiracy theorizing. Hope Blumenthal is making some money from all this crap--because he'll have enemies for life. The Greyzone was the only outfit willing to go critical on NAFO outside of Moss Robeson, who as you kno...
