You can also poor water out of a sinking boat a bucket at a time. Or you can just get on a different boat.

All great options.

Wikipedia has been shown, not just accused but actually shown, via the curtain being pulled back on how moderation/editing occurs, to be very leftwing in their editorial bias.

The fact that this very leftwing bias is then used as the basis for AI answers and populates at the top of Google searches, whose algorithm also produces demonstrated leftwing leftwing bias in its search results, means that for most people, simple internet use is actually an engagement with progressive/leftist propaganda.

They've had other wikipedia type sources out there. For this Grokipedia to work they need to figure a way to get that site used as the basis for AI/Google generated searches. That's going to be the hard part in this scheme.

Trump is in the Epstein files too, and no one is claiming he did anything wrong. Dude hung out with the rich and powerful. Not everyone knew what he was doing.

The fact that Peter Thiel was mentioned in that release by Congressional Dems should have made it clear to you that it was a huge nothingburger.

Maybe so. But at any rate the left wing bias is not really debatable. Treating MSNBC and CNN as “reliable sources” is insane.

Really?

You can do a general google search to find out how many academics have issues with the wiki pages about themselves. And when they report it, to publish the truth, it never gets fixed.

I'll say I don't think its just left leaning but also a suppression of medical research which I see as a problem on both sides of the aisle because of the $ involved.

Try editing anything controversial, they're locked.

For example, the Nashville trans terrorist article uses preferred pronouns. For a terrorist. Who slaughtered children.
