    Ew.

    Kissinger deserves the hatred he gets, but let’s not vandalize Wikipedia, pretty please? It’s an encyclopedia, not a political tribune.

      Mortal problems are for mortals to solve. So long as we allow autocrats to rule us violently, we will despair for a divine justice that never manifests.

        We can detect the mechanisms by which our senses detect the outside world and processes that experience. And all evidence points to these mechanisms ceasing when we individually perish.

        Hellish places exist, some of which we’ve experienced while living or probed in the reaches of our world.

        But spirits have no mass, emit, reflect or absorb no light or particle, have no electromagnetic signature, make or absorb no sound. And we know this desperate to detect them, by searching the material differences between the living and the dead, and we have yet to detect a thing.

        We imagine spirits such as human souls to function with capacity similar to the human brain, but without any of the qualities that allow such capabilities.

        Henry Kissinger’s story has ended. He does not languish in Hellfire nor soar through the heavens nor haunt his own house. There is no vengeance to be had from his countless victims. All that remains is what we learn from his life and history. Maybe we’ll pursue a future in which people like Henry Kissinger do not attain wealth and power. Maybe it will take more monsters making atrocious arrangements with monsters before we take such action.

        But Hell is a fantasy to distract us from the here and now, that ours is a world where Henry Kissingers can thrive.

        I wasn’t even able to find the revision, it seems the person who made the meme just used the editor to make the edit, then took a screenshot of the preview but didn’t publish it.

        I would generally agree with you, though there was one incident last year regarding Mike Graham and his comments about growing concrete that gave me a good laugh. Reading through the Wikipedia edits on his page from the end August 2022 is pure comedic gold.

          Vandalizing Wikipedia is wrong. That being said, this is some of the funniest shit I’ve read this year. I think my favorite edit was the one that simply put “journalist” in quotes

            Yes, exactly. Anything perceived as “neutral” or “nonbiased” is just your bias being reflected.

            The specific methods that Wikipedia uses to determine whether a source is reliable causes it to have a status quo bias towards capitalist neoliberalism. There’s also a bit of consent manufacturing that occurs on sources and controversial topics.

            Don’t get me wrong, Wikipedia is great in most situations. However when it comes to controversial (especially political) topics, look elsewhere.
