Never donated before today. Thanks elon I guess 👍

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

Me neither but just did.

[–] ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah it's been a while since I last donated and there is some light controversy around how Wikipedia goes about asking for money but I still believe in their mission.

So fuck you Musk, have a twenty Wikipedia.

I’ve never donated to Wikipedia. I have now donated to Wikipedia.

[–] Joeffect@lemmy.world 18 points 2 weeks ago

This man did more for Wikipedia than those annoying Wikipedia messages could ever do

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 51 points 2 weeks ago

Because any information at all is woke.

This is the idiocracy way.

[–] TheDemonBuer@lemmy.world 43 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I am a monthly donor to Wikipedia, because I think it's an incredibly important resource. Elon Musk can fuck all the way off.

I had been clicking past the donate reminder so far this year. Thanks for the reminder to get it done today before the new year.

[–] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 37 points 2 weeks ago

Wikipedia is arguably the best website on all of the internet.

Like, if you wanted one website to survive the apocalypse or whatever, it's probably Wikipedia.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 33 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Runs platform based on lies and hates platform based on truth. Check notes yeah that about sums it up.

I am beginning to think Satan will turn out less evil than this monster.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 25 points 2 weeks ago

Oh, great reminder, I didn't donate in a few months, gonna send them a lil Santa coffee gift right now.

[–] HexesofVexes@lemmy.world 25 points 2 weeks ago

He looks like he starts all his announcements with an unironic "fellow humans".

Seriously, is he some kind of meat puppet controlled by incel aliens?

[–] eyjohn@lemmy.world 24 points 2 weeks ago

For those of you with workplace donation platforms, Wikipedia/wikimedia are usually registered and eligible for company match, so is the web archive.

[–] PlantDadManGuy@lemmy.world 18 points 2 weeks ago

$10 donation coming in hot!

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago

I usually donate a low amount, but I'm going to drop a $50 this year now. We know this asshat's threats are random, but we can't risk it.

[–] GetOn@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago

Thanks for the reminder. Just donated!

I had an uncle who was a rabid Trump supporter. Ultranationalist, White Supremacist and Bible thumper. (its even weirder that my uncle is a Canadian living in the US who refuses to get US citizenship).

he moved to Texas because he wanted to get away from the "morally bankrupt liberals" in California, moved to Texas because Elon went there. I think the only person he loved more than Trump was Elon.

then suddenley, one day he told the family that he wasn't following Elon anymore, and that Elon is evil. I'd really like to hear what he has to say about it. Except there is zero contact because the guy is so deranged he made death threats against my mother. So we're keeping him at length and not giving him any sense of welcome that he can come back into our lives, or worse yet, come visit physically.

still, would be interesting to see into the mind of a lunatic.
