Wikipedia has become a one-sided 'thought police' for liberals, cofounder warns

#9

I actually use to throw a $20 bill Wikipedia's way about once a year because I appreciate the quick reference knowledge they provide on science and technology stuff. Then I opened up one of their pages on something (I can't recall the subject - it might have been NASA related) and it was so full of irrelevant and out of context political content that it was shocking. Naturally it was pee-in-the-pants TDS rant material. It read like something a sky screamer would write, yet there it was on a Wikipedia page. Probably written by DragonFury.

I still use them for science and technology references, but it would feel dirty and dishonest to give them any more money. It's the same reason I stopped my subscription to Scientific American, long before things became as divided as they are now. It was obvious the editors, 10-12 years ago, were willing to bastardize a scientific platform to advance a social agenda.
