No. Fuck you Snopes. Your site is continually full of bullshit. Anyone who donates to either Snopes or Wikipedia is a god damn fool. The Internet would evolve better tools if both of these pieces of shit went away.

@djsumdog I think overall Wikipedia has done more good than harm. Yes it’s administered by 4,000 insufferable idiots with political motivations, but at least I can read about the global history of snowmen. And it has greatly increased awareness of free culture.

No, wikipedia is the worst offender, since all of its bias is still hidden from the eyes of the normie.

While normies know 1 percent of how evil Google and Facebook are, Wiki is still considered a good source.

@LukeAlmighty @alex I posted it elsewhere in this thread, but I'll put it here too. Larry Sanger did a great post about the fall of the platform he founded. There is a lot of stuff that's fine on the great wiki, but anything slightly controversial suffers from horrific bias:

If you're going to use Wikipedia, always do two things:

1. Read the Talk page first. There's a lot of good stuff in there
2. Go back in the history to a random point at 5 years and 10 years. See how the article has changed.
