Best of luck for these guys though. Sounds like they're getting it pretty hard.

2018-07-20 07:30:01 UTC  

I think he's ok, he's got a few things going

2018-07-20 07:30:20 UTC  

everything they try to do to him, only helps him

2018-07-20 07:30:51 UTC  

but damn, let nerds buy their shit, I'm mystified at how we got here

2018-07-20 07:31:27 UTC  

This is how SJW works, unfortunately.

2018-07-20 07:31:36 UTC  

Look into the humanities departments in the 90s.

2018-07-20 07:32:30 UTC  

*The Closing of the American Mind* was the first sign. And that was 1987.

2018-07-20 07:32:54 UTC  

I can barely keep up with it

2018-07-20 07:33:21 UTC  

Yeah. I have an issue with social media where it can be really hard for people to get caught up in stuff.

2018-07-20 07:33:36 UTC  

It's badly disorganized. Reddit is better than most. But even that has problems.

2018-07-20 07:34:17 UTC  

Wikipedia in theory is the place, but that's...difficult.

Other wikis almost never seem to stay updated or have their own problems.

2018-07-20 07:36:06 UTC  

oh God, wikimedia is corrupt as all fuck

2018-07-20 07:37:21 UTC  

hot tip: if you take donations, don't take pictures of your clique flashing stacks of cash and drinking wine

2018-07-20 07:38:09 UTC  

and the edit wars will always go to whoever has absolutely no life, which tends to be cliques of SJWs

2018-07-20 07:38:14 UTC  
2018-07-20 07:38:26 UTC  

right

2018-07-20 07:38:29 UTC  

Even though carlos was so dead wrong on some points

2018-07-20 07:38:51 UTC  

Especially immigration

2018-07-20 07:40:26 UTC  

Oh I'm sorry for interrupting

2018-07-20 07:40:33 UTC  

What are you guys talking about?

2018-07-20 07:40:38 UTC  

Comicsgate.

2018-07-20 07:40:55 UTC  

And then it shifted to wikipedia being brigaded and corrupted.

2018-07-20 07:41:04 UTC  

Marvel going down the gutter, and stuff?

2018-07-20 07:41:08 UTC  

Basically.

2018-07-20 07:41:19 UTC  

And the consumer revolt in response.

2018-07-20 07:41:24 UTC  

And about wikipedia, it's always been the case

2018-07-20 07:41:44 UTC  

I remember a politician here kade the claim that his grandfather invented lemonade

2018-07-20 07:42:04 UTC  

And his supporters went to the wiki page of lemonade and started editing that in

2018-07-20 07:42:08 UTC  

In droves

2018-07-20 07:42:16 UTC  

It's always been the case

2018-07-20 07:42:41 UTC  

That's the problem with reader supported encyclopedias. The vast majority of editors are morons

2018-07-20 07:42:51 UTC  

Wikipedia is worse than that.

2018-07-20 07:43:13 UTC  

There's a shadow hierarchy of no-life editors that can ovreride edits and write narratives.

2018-07-20 07:43:29 UTC  

Are the people at the top far left idiots?

2018-07-20 07:44:11 UTC  

That's what some people seem to think.

2018-07-20 07:44:30 UTC  

I don't have any hard data. But there are definitely articles that have been manipulated.

2018-07-20 07:45:17 UTC  

I think we were discussing 'Cultural Marxism' the other day.

2018-07-20 07:45:35 UTC  

Yeah the cultural Marxism article was entirely removed

2018-07-20 07:45:39 UTC  

Rather weird

2018-07-20 07:46:10 UTC  

Have you guys heard of what happened to Mark Duplass?

2018-07-20 07:46:12 UTC  

It got moved. The real kicker was how dramatically changed it was between versions. Even contradicting it's earlier version
