If the truth hurts then you probably need to adjust your viewpoint rather than trying to discredit the messenger 😟🤷♂️
Another excuse to censor Wikipedia in the US.
If I was the Wikipedia Foundation, I would start looking for solutions to move to Europe...
"How dare you to tell the truth about him?!"
I’m one day ahead of you.
Yesterday, just before starting my vacation, I learned that there’s an active effort to influence or tailor Charlie Kirk’s Wikipedia page.

I won’t have any further insight for the next three weeks (as I’m on vacation), but please keep an eye on it. They’re likely to circle back to this.
i say this so often, i need to make a meme for it
Nothing #Cancervatives or #Repugnicans say has meaning or value. it is 𝙖𝙡𝙬𝙖𝙮𝙨 in bad faith. Always
here's a meme that i did make that demonstrates this
"We believe in free speech and journalistic integrity"
"No no not like that"
Nope. Not happening. He said these things...
Surprise, people hate it when #wikipedia editors have the audacity to prevent them from rewriting history afterwards.
Can't be that #wikipedia editors are the reason you can't just remove the things you don't like to fit your narrative of victim framing some shithead...
This is where we are as a country and I am sicked by it.
The record is the record. These actions existed, exist now.
Spoiler alert: HE designed the narrative.
That’s why so-called ”free speech champions” are now calling for people to NOT hear the speech & viewpoints their idol and example. (And they don’t think that’s counterindicative!)
The problem is that the killer was found to be one of their own, and there can’t be consequences for the in-group.
Charlie consistently argued that unborn babies are deserving of human rights. Interesting that this viewpoint is excluded entirely from the abortion section.
He complained I didn't respect him.
But the reality is that he wanted me to just shut up and accept his behavior without comments.
Respect means discussing the good and the bad, calmly, respecting boundaries, and accepting potential shortcomings of one's actions.
Which is what Wikipedia does.
Respect!
Like what is the discredit? This WAS his credit. He weaseled 12M out of it.
I know, "He died." But, "We all die," so what kind of credit is that?
That would be an appropriate wikipedia page actually. "Charlie Kirk: He died."
