Nope it has a lock on it which means no one other than those with access can change it

I saw this pic yesterday and it wasn't accurate then. It's possible it was changed back real quick, but it seems like a classic troll job one way or another.
No defense of wiki in general. The recession change was real and that by itself is enough to discredit the site as a reliable source (to the extent it ever was.)
Can't people check change logs on entries? That should paint a picture if so.

It’s a shame they don’t know that we already have two words that describe what they’re trying to do, connotation and denotation.

That's because it is fake. OP took this picture off of Twitter
OP is better than this, hope it’s not true that he didn’t check before posting and was edited.

that kind of feeds into the point the OP is trying to make. No one has a Webster dictionary sitting on their book shelf anymore. Hell most people don’t even have bookshelves with books anymore. If you control language you can control society. They change the meaning of words constantly to make things fit there narrative with the bigger irony of all redefining the meaning of definition. Wiki being one of the tools they use.
Nailed it. OP is giving us all a picture of the near future.
Hell they're already doing it with many other words.

Just off the top of my head….
Marriage
Sex/gender
Man
Woman
Immigrant
Racism
Fascism
Vaccine
Riot
Insurrection
Recession
All of these words have been twisted by progressives, some to the point of being polar opposite their original definition, all in an effort to further their political agenda.

eeesh, judging by the downvotes our lefties don’t like the conclusions you’re drawing. yet, no rebuttals.

A rebuttal would require the ability to form an actual thought. Leftists can’t do this. If they could, they wouldn’t be leftists.
Edit: see, just like my other post the downvote what I’ve said, yet again they can’t refute it. All they can do is express their impotent rage via the downvote.

Go to that page and try to change it

It is interesting that dozens of people upvoted the post without bothering to verify it.

Im triggered and will let it ruin my day.

Unreal times.
Their keyword: "FLUID"
The only "definitions" Wiki-Woke needed to change:
"Up" = "Down". "Gay" = "Normal". "Evil = Good".
Wiki pulling this crap is no surprise.
But disturbingly, Webster's is also now in the redefining definitions business.

1984 was one of the scariest books I have ever read. It was what horror films are like to others.
And what's so fricked up is Orwell meant it to be a warning. The left sees it as a manual

Globalists-Fascists psychological-techniques and Pavlovian conditioning that bears repeating:
In other words, no longer can our formerly-trusted Institutions be trusted. All of our Dear Leaders "official" pronouncements are now just fear-based psyop set ups.

In their propaganda today’s dictators rely for the most part on:
Repetition, suppression and rationalization — the repetition of catchwords which they wish to be accepted as true [aka LIES], the suppression of facts [aka TRUTH] which they wish to be ignored.
In other words, no longer can our formerly-trusted Institutions be trusted. All of our Dear Leaders "official" pronouncements are now just fear-based psyop set ups.
