    The description missed: desperate attempt of OP to paint Wikipedia (the open source successful project which democratized public knowledge) same colours as Facebook and Twitter.

    I wonder if there’s some kinda agenda behind it

        Well, thanks. But is there any good alternative or at least some approach fundamentally different but not susceptible to the same problems?

      LOL really betting that people can’t see libertarian Jimmy Wales begging for money while manicuring every narrative the DoD spits out. Just because sometimes they are willing to accept that napalm’s ability to stick to flesh and burn underwater isn’t “irrelevant pov” we can take them at face value as a bastion of democracy. Are you on the Atlantic Council or do you simply have a sandblaster pointed at your brain?

        Wanna suggest an apolical better alternative or you’re one of those who says “there’s nothing we can do, only criticize”?

              You are on an open source pinko imageboard defending Wikipedia for “democratizing” information. If you had ever lifted a finger to participate in the psychotic liberal forum it really is, you’d shut your mouth. But here you are humiliating yourself. Go try to democratize some information, it would teach you something. You can’t even try because you don’t know anything you aren’t spoonfed. It would be lulzy for you to learn how their truths are made.

                Sir, you totally engaged with my point, provided a solution and meanwhile have been very respectful to me. I wish to talk more with you, can we maybe meet up for a cup of coffee some time?

      Whenever I see these coy political memes I’m grateful that I’m not on the side where our extremists are the mainstream. The political theory is great, guys. In theory. Don’t make it your personality.
