  • I don’t use such terms, but I’ll try a possible explanation: There is indeed a certain tendency. Articles are mostly written by speakers of that language. For example English articles by English-spreading editors tend to be influenced by western ideology. If you’d look at, I dunno, Russian Wikipedia, I’d assume it’s a similar situation.

    It’s known that there are indeed paid government agents editing Wikipedia. But even those that are not are influenced by the Zeitgeist, which itself is informed by state propaganda. So we don’t need to assume intentional malice.

    Ideally, people complaining about Wikipedia would have the time and skill to improve it. But that’s easier said than done.


  • Wenn keiner Einwände hat, ist das ja quasi eine Erlaubnis. Also wenn’s um Erlaubnisse geht, wie wenn man fragt ob man ein Eis darf.

    Toll, jetzt möchte ich ein Eis haben. Warte! Ich bin erwachsen, ich KANN ein Eis haben, ohne um Erlaubnis bitten zu müssen! Also hypothetisch, wenn ich Eis hätte… Also ich habe zwar Eis, aber aber nichts für mich, das eine restliche ist für’s Kind reserviert… Scheiße, jetzt muss ich das Kind um Erlaubnis bitten. 😔




  • I’m sorry for your hard time. Did you explicitly ask them what they meant by “you’re not being bullied”? I see room for misinterpretation, like “yeah that was rude, but cut them some slack”.

    I’ve personally had many clashes with a friend feeling offended due to misinterpretations of what I have said, which make me tend to look at it from the other side. But I do not want to discount your feelings, you are valid ❤️
