He's gurning like he's on some very good pills
What idiot would want to restrict Wiki (rhetorical question)? The amount I have learned from Wiki of the years is immeasurable. Start on a subject only to find yourself going down a Wiki hole on some fascinating but totally unrelated subject, and before you know it an hour has passed.
Really like the obscure political episodes from random countries around the world. Have learned more geography than I ever learned in school.
Just when I ask what more can space karen possibly do or say this year thats more idiotic than all the other shit he has done or said, he gives us this polished gem of a turd.
First of all leftists don't even use the word woke, Right-wingers do Maybe he should go after right-wingers 😉
Left wingers USED to use the word "Woke", early on it basically meant what "Based" means now, but then it was co-opted by the right.
Woke as in "Awoken to the reality of the situation"
They all look pretty "Asleep" to me
The right are definitely all asleep to the reality that they support blatant fascism

Goddamn snowflake Democrats and their cancel culture!
Didn't this dumbass offer to buy Wikipedia last year? Or was it earlier this year?
Love how it’s the source of honest curated information but I can’t use it for homework 😤
You shouldn't use any encyclopedia, wiki or otherwise. They're too surface level for the information you would want to include in any kind of report.
It's great to use for finding a bunch of sources you can cite, however.
Yes you can. You need to cite the sources that the Wikipedia article cites, not just cite wikipedia.
Everyone is responding to you why you shouldn't be using Wikipedia anyways for homework, and I wholeheartedly agree that it's a great starting point but not a great finishing point, but I'll give you a hint as to how you can use it for your homework 😉.
Find your topic in Wikipedia and find a tidbit of information that you want to use on your paper or whatever. Wikipedia should have sources, so find the source of the thing you want to use.
That source now has the information you want to use and much more! That should be citable for your homework!
I mean, would it make sense to cite an encyclopedia?
...those were like these big collections of books that had a bunch of random, useful information in it. Idk if those even included sources
Some include sources, some don't. You probably shouldn't use those that don't, but most high school teachers will probably accept Encyclopedia Britannica just based off of name value.
