A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Is there an issue with these sites I'm not aware of?
Jimmy Wales is a shitbag, but that just means I don't give Wikipedia any money.
I am barely aware of TV Tropes.
A shit bag how?
He's a Randroid.
Ok, how about we try normal English and preferably some sources? I don't know what that word means or why it should be significant to anyone.

Personal philosophy section.
Everyone here is welcome to disagree with my assertion that he's a shitty human being, but that is my read of the situation.
I don't boycott Wikipedia. I just don't give them any money. I don't give lots of websites any money. I will give them money when he's no longer a part of the board.
Wikipedia is a great resource started by a terrible person. I recommend people use it.
I was afraid of that, but given some of your previous posts, I'm not all that surprised.
Since both those sites are just descriptions of things that exist, it sounds like you want an echo chamber where you don't need to acknowledge that certain things exist. I think it's better to try and figure out why you're so offended by reality.
