Scum helping scum. Needs to be harsher penalties for these people
Of course it’s linked to Keir Starmer. Is there anything that fool touches that isn’t subsequently tainted by that touch?
I’ve always been interested how the Wikipedia editor based in a London gvt building, with the handle „British Finance“ has been given free rein to the „Tax Haven“ on the Ireland page, ( Ireland has never been a tax haven, it has low corporate tax) with corrections and fixes constantly overruled.
I havent checked in a long time but this went on for over a decade and you would wonder how casually influential this has been in that decade.
I have not reviewed the pages of British tax havens like London, Jersey or Isle of Mann to see if they have similar treatments.
Wouldn’t it be ironic if Reddit decided to slander Paedo Portland
Fuck these people. Billionaires are a cancer and should be treated accordingly.
Don’t forget to donate!
Big PR is a scourge and the sooner it’s regulated, the better.
Every article or story written with the help of a paid flack should be labeled as such.
That is 90 percent of what you consume, btw. 99% of so-called celebrity journalism.
This happens frequently on Wikipedia. Lots of groups rewrite articles to fit their narratives.
These kinds of people piss me off as an editor, they waste everyones time
Yeah this is known to a lot of people.
Except people on reddit it seems.
Because whenever i mention it not being the bastion of integrity everyone thinks it is the brigading begins.
Wikipedia has been a shitshow of misinformation for a long time. Probably started out with good intentions but no kids, it’s not all smiles and rainbows. Don’t believe everything you read.
Because rewriting history is profitable.
It’s not only billionaires and governments, though. Also, religious and ethnical groups.
Even though I am from Europe, I’ve been quite interested in the history of Myanmar because of friends and people close to me. Over the last few years I have seen regular and constant changes to Wikipedia articles there, mainly deleting or rewriting history regarding the violent expansion of certain non-indigenous strongly religious ethnical groups with international affiliation.
Among others, the destruction and annexation of whole territories „disappeared“ or wording was changed in a way to make it seem justifiable; so did pogroms committed by *certain* invasive ethnic groups against indigenous ethnic groups – what was kept, was the record of the strike-back, then portrayed as unfounded phobia and or hatred. We are seeing a proactive and aggressive push in narrative, victimization an aggressor.
(Note that explicitly DO NOT talk about the illegitimate military Junta here, but about regional ethnical conflicts).
For me, personally, the history-revision regarding Myanmar on Wikipedia has been a very goods example and reminder as to why my university professors always highlighted that Wikipedia is not a reliable source.
