Skipped straight to the "you're a rapist for making this joke", huh?
Maybe you can just like block me and move on with your life? It's not like I'm going to remove this meme just because you think it's making fun of trauma, and you're not going to get me to repent my evil ways either. Or do you want to lecture me some more, maybe call me a rapist again?
Oh yeah, I know that's what they think, it's just a bit silly that they advocate for charity to solve homelessness while at the same time they more or less want the homeless to literally die
And considering how many libertarians think that poverty is essentially due to personal choice, we can all imagine how many of them are willing to voluntarily donate money to helping the poor.
As someone who only tried making some random corrections here and there and wasn't all that "in" in the whole editing world, over time the experience was miserable enough that I simply don't bother anymore.
More than once I tried correcting the Finnish version of some pages on a specific subject that had pretty blatant misrepresentations of what the source material actually said (as in they actually ended up claiming the opposite of what the source or the English page said), and my edits were reverted by some "power admin" who was treating the pages on that subject as their personal fiefdom. They refused to have any sort of rational discussion about it, and it turned into them just using obscure (to me, anyhow) Wikipedia policy references to get their way and I simply couldn't be arsed to figure out how to get around this particular asshole.
As someone here in the comments said, "people will people." Too many Wikipedia admins are in it simply for the feeling of power, and Wikipedia's frankly quite complicated policy is used more as a weapon against people who dare encroach on their turf rather than as rules for ensuring good-quality pages.
Edit: also, am I the only one who keeps accidentally clicking on Lemmy's "delete comment" button when meaning to edit a comment? Why in the everliving fuck doesn't it ask for confirmation?
Yeah, if I woke up tied to train tracks and had someone explain that to me, I'd zone out and then panic because I had no idea what the fuck was going on
Oh you didn't waste my time at all, no worries. It's not like copy-pasting those paths from my terminal was all that much work, and it'd definitely have been better if I'd included that info right from the start. Unfortunately I couldn't give any blog posts etc as a source, because as I said it was all based on my own poking around in those databases, but at least I could say where the databases were so others could do some poking around of their own if they wanted to
Like, do you think that Kent state happening means Tiananmen didn't happen or wasn't actually bad because people on the other side of the world also did bad things, or what the hell was your point with this exactly? Or did you just like bang at the keyboard until a syntactically correct sentence accidentally formed?
That's actually a bit tricky for me especially via text, I've got a touch of the 'ole autism (like I have an actual diagnosis from a real medical doctor and not TikTok), but I get what you mean. I have a bad habit of assuming the worst about people
Oh you fucking tease, I hoped that that actually exists, but at least Beehaw's community search gives me no results. WHY MUST YOU PLAY WITH MY HOPES AND DREAMS

gasp thousands of apologies my dear Grug! I will immediately remove this meme and rub nettles on my crotch as punishment
Edit: I lied about one of those things I promised to do
