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.

        Are they really tho it just seems to me like you just really don’t like anyone with a differing opinion after a quick glance through your comments I could be wrong dare I say but after looking through your comments it looks like you think anyone remotely right wing is a big nazis facist boogeyman sure there are some people out there with those beliefs but there generally quite small in numbers

          In the US, yes, anybody on the right wing is either a straight-up fascist or comfortable being fascist adjacent, which isn’t much different.

            I don’t believe this to be the case. this is my opinion. but I know. that there are honest. good hardworking people. on both sides. of the political spectrum. Not everything is black and white as well some issues are more complicated than others

              I’m not downvoting you bc I respect that’s your opinion. But might I suggest that you investigate how much a billion dollars really is?

              This is an old but great place to start:

              https://mkorostoff.github.io/1-pixel-wealth/

              There is no contribution and work that someone can do to earn that much in a meritocracy. They literally have to have fucked their societies laws and values so much that folks believe that while people are homeless, hungry, fleeing wars, unable to afford healthcare and schooling, etc, that the 2700+ billionaires in the world should be able to have so much that they literally couldn’t spend it all if they tried.

              If you believe in a meritocracy, then billionaires should be repugnant. No individual contribution is a billion dollars.

                Isn’t obama apart of the democrats? I dunno I’m not mercian m8 so I’m not too used to mercian politics all I know is there are two main political parties republicans which it’s main ideology is Conservatism and democrats which it’s main ideology is social liberalism obama is left wing I’m fairly certain as he runs with the democrats

                  Google Overton window and realize obama is right of reagan on most major policy issues.
