The X owner has no time for a democratic experiment dedicated to knowledge. He would rather yell puerile ‘jokes’ into the ether, writes Zoe Williams
Now is a good time to flood Wikipedia with donations. For the first time in my life, i have just donated to them and will do so again. You can do it too for a minimum of €2, no requirement for recurring donations or any nonsense.
To everyone thinking Wikipedia should go with the deal and then change the name back.
It's like taking money for doing d*ck tatoo on forehead and then doing laser removal, humiliation. No foundation or company should show they are craving for money by doing anything someone would pay for.
This is so douchey. Why not just give that money to Wikipedia? Or even a smaller amount? As the largest free information resource in the world, Wikipedia is an invaluable asset for humanity as a whole. Just feels weird to say, "I'll give you money, but do a trick first," to anyone, let alone the holders of a free, worldwide encyclopedia.
Sounds like a decent deal and pretty funny tbh wikimedia foundation gets a shit ton of money which'll go towards a variety of good causes while being in the public eye because elon is involved and Elon is a big figure Elon gets to make a billon dollar shitpost everyone's happy sure as hell doesn't seem like Elon is attacking wikimedia foundation just that he wants to make a bad financial decision although saying that most things Elon do end up being bad financial decisions
