    It’s not about making something useful. He and a few others are cloning everything any of their cult might use to further fence them in from external information and entertainment.

    They’re having a harder time in entertainment, because artists tend to be more liberal, but they’re gaining ground there, too. After a certain point, they’ll just radically censor everything else.

    Musk is just Nazi-washing what he stole from Wikipedia, he doesn’t have the base of volunteers and employees to maintain his latest toy. A year from now, it will be gone and forgotten, and we’ll all be shouting at each other to go vote.

    They are going to clone Wikipedia, then use some flimsy excuse to get it shut down under something like “anti conservative bias”. He’ll position Nazipedia to replace it.

        It’s going to be very hard to maintain with a cohesive group of editors if it’s fractured in to different servers with everyone hosting a different copy. The current data may live on, but it’ll be a zombie.
