just because two people hate you doesn't mean they are co-conspirators
(1. who cares who runs Wikimedia, it's crooked 2. it's who gets to vote that's the main issue 3. ordinary people can't audit this mess 4. vandals and libellers control the code)
(just because two people hate you doesn't mean they are co-conspirators)
Line 55: Line 55:


::The real problem is of course "who gets to vote" - no matter what their contributions and no matter how correct or eloquent they are, [[trolls]] do not by definition give [[Wikimedia]] money to oppress them, so, they do not vote in this corporate system [[Bomis]] has set up to continue [[Wikimedia corruption]] of the [[GFDL corpus]], and to lie to [[GFDL corpus access provider]]s about what is a [[GFDL violation]].  Since the whole purpose of [[Wikimedia]] is lies, it does not seem that it would necessarily be morally wrong for liars and vote-riggers to run it. - [[obvious troll]]s

:''That's your story.  It could be a [[cover story]].  He is certainly your ally in [[developer vigilantiism]] (huge [[IP range block]]s affecting whole cities simply to prevent challenge to the [[Sysop Vandal point of view]]) though he is prone to [[libel]] and so far you are not.''
Look, Craig, just because two people hate you doesn't mean they are co-conspirators. Erik and I are quite different in most respects, however we share the ability (along with most humans) to spot an asshole when we see one. The reason you are harassed wherever you go is because you actively work to make people angry, not because the people you attack are all part of a vast conspiracy to suppress what you have to say. -- [[User:Tim Starling|Tim Starling]] 05:03, 29 Jun 2004 (EEST)
