If your opinion isn't LEFT-WING orientated it gets DELETED...... That's the whole point.. Wikipedia is "OPEN" to anyone that agrees with the "Left".
I, personally, have never had that problem, and have always found Wikipedia to be very unbiased. Have you actually contributed to Wikipedia, or are you just jumping on the story line like a good lemming?
And you know what? Anybody can delete stuff, or reinstate deleted items, just like anybody can write material. If there's contention, the article is flagged as under debate. If it's not flagged, then obviously conservatives aren't objecting, are they?
But here's a brilliant idea! Let's all us conservatives refuse to contribute whatsoever! That way, the liberals will *definitely* be in control! And of the largest encylopedia in the world, no less!
It should be challenged. He was thoroughly and completely discredited professionally, as was the notion that he was a "Nobel prize nominee."
Your "subscribed date" is pertinent and relavent to your standing here.
I also read your posting History. I see a "theme"
I see that you come here largely to "disagree".
I haven't been harsh with you, but now that you've accused me of it, I might as well indulge myself.
I'd say your recent subscription date has to do with the fact that you are a troll and have been tossed any number of times.
I'm looking at the big picture here, Nucsubvet, you might think you're fooling *someone, but you ain't foolin me.
You got troll-funk all over you.
-That's just my opinion of course.
If I'm wrong, I apologize and you and I have no beef.
But you'll find that I'm generally right about everything.
-They don't call me Cap'n TrVth for nothin' ;>
But what about your posting History?
That sounds a little bit overly defensive to me.
Yes, I have contributed edits and articles, I also had them pulled. And I have had them restored, and pulled at a later time. (and removed from the archive) -I have read countless other stories of the same, and I am accutely aware of *Exactly* how the site works.
And you know what? Anybody can delete stuff, or reinstate deleted items, just like anybody can write material. If there's contention, the article is flagged as under debate. If it's not flagged
Ya know what else? The creators maintain ultimate editorial power on controversial issues and they EXCERCISE that power FREQUENTLY anf they are HEAVILY biased to the left. This is a fact. But here's a brilliant idea! Let's all us conservatives refuse to contribute whatsoever!
Sorry, there'd be no point. -Wikipedia is populated only by schoolchildren from Australasia and a few deluded geeks. Wikipedia has long been relagated to the pile of "zero credibility" Kook sites.
I've explained why.
Sorry to crush all of your hearts but SHEEEEZE.
C'mon.... Wikipedia???? I'm -really- sorry that none of you have managed to figure this out on your own.
The confusion arises from the fact that rational selfishness provides no limits or guidance to personal behavior. It says do anything you want to whomever you want as long as you think you will get away with it. As Paul said, even the heathens have a conscience. That is God speaking with us and telling us what is wrong. The principle of rational selfishness tells folks that things are OK that are not. On some level they know that. So they are confused. One look at a picture of Ayn Rand and it's obvious that she was a deeply unhappy person.
Some may be ignorant and some may be libertarians who like democrats may be moral liberals and or only find worth in an opposition stance.
Bump DBeers.....
This whole thread was a big gigantic non-argument.
Wikipedia is as LEFT-WING as LEFTWING can be.
They have to dress it up and call it something else,
only a fool would sit here and try to defend that mess.
Look at the moonbats defending Wikipedia in this thread.
-As if there is even anything to argue about.
Wikipedia is for mixed up kids, Lefties and the agenda ridden losers that force their creeping hegemony on them.
Another thing that always amazes me, is the way certain people create F.R. identities just to log on and "Argue".
You know them when yu see them, often they are careful to not transgress enough to get booted. Well, fine.
But I'm getting the Moose Cheese out and man is my Sister pissed!
You claim "[Google] made it a policy from the start to hire lefties". The quote from USA Today doesn't speak to that point.
If you think that's the policy, then you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
