It's basically the free movement of people and jobs

2018-07-18 06:00:31 UTC  

Are you guys taking aboout politiscales?

2018-07-18 06:00:49 UTC  

As far as wikipedia defines it

2018-07-18 06:01:05 UTC  

lol. Using wikipedia for politics. That won't ever go wrong. //s

2018-07-18 06:01:10 UTC  

Lol

2018-07-18 06:01:16 UTC  

With neo liberalism, united fruit company happens

2018-07-18 06:01:26 UTC  

And you do not want united fruit company

2018-07-18 06:01:38 UTC  

English-speakers have used the term "neoliberalism" since the start of the 20th century with different meanings,

2018-07-18 06:01:50 UTC  

^ This

Wikipedia is amazing

2018-07-18 06:01:59 UTC  

Wait I'll do 8values

2018-07-18 06:02:06 UTC  

Wiki is amazing. For stuff where you can't really go wrong (like chemistry)

2018-07-18 06:02:06 UTC  

I was centrist last time

2018-07-18 06:02:18 UTC  

@pratel Hey I had an idea

2018-07-18 06:02:25 UTC  

Imagine a news site

2018-07-18 06:02:27 UTC  

about two weeks old

2018-07-18 06:02:29 UTC  

Run like wikipedia

2018-07-18 06:02:34 UTC  

But if you are using wiki for stuff that gets people emotionally charged and you can gain from manipulating public opinion...

2018-07-18 06:03:04 UTC  

Where there's headlines and people can add to it with sources

2018-07-18 06:03:09 UTC  

Political issues, particularly current ones, get heavily brigaded.

2018-07-18 06:03:22 UTC  

I think what 8 values is using is what wikipedia would describe as far as neoliberalism

2018-07-18 06:03:33 UTC  

@Deleted User I can sorta see it. Continue?

2018-07-18 06:03:58 UTC  

I haven't seen much evidence of wikipedia being false and misleading to a significant degree

2018-07-18 06:04:08 UTC  

I'm not entirely sure what just adding sources to headlines would necesarily achieve besides being a big collection of links.

2018-07-18 06:04:15 UTC  

Nah, nah

2018-07-18 06:04:21 UTC  

You have to add to the story

2018-07-18 06:04:34 UTC  

And to prove what you are adding you can provide links

2018-07-18 06:04:43 UTC  

@ExceptionalFeather

Look up a current political figure and look for the words used. Look up some other opinions. You'll eventually find something.

2018-07-18 06:04:51 UTC  

Or even stuff that you yourself have found

2018-07-18 06:04:55 UTC  

Like video evidence

2018-07-18 06:05:02 UTC  

The Gamer Gate people here tend to have lots of complaints about Wikipedia. Evidently they got hit hard.

2018-07-18 06:05:24 UTC  

yea

2018-07-18 06:06:16 UTC  

literally anything that's false but can be supported by 'reliable' media will get on wikipedia no problem

2018-07-18 06:06:45 UTC  

@Deleted User

I can sorta see it, but I'm not sure I see how it is that different in principle from wikipedia if it's just general news.

It's also going to get brigaded hard.

2018-07-18 06:07:09 UTC  

If it was limited to something specific like misleading media narratives and had controls or something to keep from bleeding, I could see it.

2018-07-18 06:08:16 UTC  

not finding any issues here

2018-07-18 06:09:36 UTC  

Something like that for a fact checking site might work

2018-07-18 06:09:40 UTC  

But not for articles i feel

2018-07-18 06:11:03 UTC  

It's usually subtle. Missing Scandals on some politicians. Who gets linked to whom. Inclusion of speculation without denoting it as speculation.

2018-07-18 06:12:16 UTC  

Then there's sometimes really blatant examples.
