"Maher states that she focuses on global digital inclusion as a way to improve and protect the rights of people to information through technology."
Yet the actual mission of Wikipedia is something quite different to this. They push a particular point of view, wrapped up in the false cloak of "neutrality", and assert this as truth. Wikipedia is part of a broader propaganda drive to export US cultural mores to the rest of the world.
- stubybubs 3y agoI'm curious, do you do much reading of Wikipedia in languages other than English? I don't, so I don't have an answer here, but I wonder how much neutrality there is in Russian or Vietnamese or Urdu wiki articles. English Wikipedia is going to have at the very least an English-speaking world tilt to it. Are the others similar?
- bestbuyer__ 3y agoThe English-speaking world is not a monolith. They have the tilt of a fraction of the English-speaking world.
