welp then I'm now really gonna go then
we'll agree to disagree
Lol
Oh I would love to hear your *well informed* opinion about how Christianity caused the fall of the empire
I’m sure it will be well researched and not a random spouting of semi-related Wikipedia articles
Goodnight 😘
Your duke definition didn't come from wikipedia?
May wanna stop shooting yourself in the foot
Oh, I knew that off the top of my head
Goodnight 😊
I just sent you the text from Wikipedia so you’d believe it
listen Sophie is more educated please leave her alone
Sophie is a nonce destroying QUEEN
Sounds like dick riding

People who lean so much on Wikipedia are not to be trusted
anyone that links you shit from Wikipedia is suspect, either they're too stupid to realize Wikipedia is biased as fuck or they do know and they're trying to deceive you
People like @Sophie are smart enough to know that Wikipedia is controlled information, therefore her purpose is to deceive
Lol Wikipedia rates higher on accuracy (not to mention scope) than any other encyclopedia
These folks will drop their pants around their ankles and trust whatever squirts out of Trump's hole, but treat Wikipedia as some sort of left-wing propaganda tool
eh its an open source. best to treat it like the media. read, interpret, choose whether to take its word or cross-reference and get some other proof as well
(ofc should do the latter of the last two options)
Well, it's good to be skeptical of everything. Textbooks are FULL of inaccuracies, mistakes, and revisions.
Too bad there's no way for someone to edit them on the fly, eh?
That would be handy
;)
In any case, I agree that it shouldn't be taken as gospel
That said, when people reject Wikipedia as a source, 99.9% of the time they're Trumpsters and the like being weasley and dishonest.
There are things you can trust Wikipedia on and things you can’t. An article about a popular political figure? Someone might have altered that for their own ends
An article about the derivation of the feudal title “duke”? That’s probably fine
Especially since it matched what I already know to be true from other sources
You can’t trust it when it comes to dates
Anyone interested in the fall of the western empire and the rise of feudalism, Mike Duncan gets into it somewhat in the last episode of history of Rome: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6LHLVXMRj4zOfJd6bHUVmi?
