@StevenSavage Just donated. Thanks for the reminder. (And, my employer, though problematic in some ways, matches employee donations).

If Musk says don't, then it's a must do. On it!

Likely to become a regular donor now.
Seems odd that Wikipedia has become a source of fact, which of course Musk hates since facts mess with his lies.

@StevenSavage If ever I needed a reason to donate to Wikipedia, "It will piss off Melon Husk!" is probably top of the list!

@StevenSavage Oh! Thanks for the reminder to donate to Wikipedia. I also support my local Wikimedia chapter, so doing that now, too.

@StevenSavage I have never donated to Wikipedia in the past. I think I’ll head over there and drop a few bucks in Mr Musk’s honor…

@StevenSavage Yes but also make sure to move the funds out of US jurisdiction and set up the structures and plans to continue the project from elsewhere when the fascists inevitably try to take it down using serious legal and executive muscle.

They have more money than I will ever have. Their CEO is paid almost as much as if he were CEO of a health insurance company.

@StevenSavage I sent my annual donation to #Wikimedia a couple of weeks ago. I’m thrilled to be an irritant to “the vile thing which I will not name”.

People who think whatever musk, trump or someone you oppose to says, you should do the opposite and it will be right, are as equally as stupid of not more.

@alavi @StevenSavage Is this schoolyard rubber/glue logic? Like, it's clear why a megalomanic like President Musk would want to undermine a popular encyclopedia that he doesn't control.

@fgbjr @StevenSavage
His point seems valid to me. No we shouldn't let wikipedia get down but they are doing a horrible moderation job and also their budgeting scandals are there to see.
They have more than enough budget and are begging for more money. They shouldn't be asking for donations in this point.
Their corruption should not be supported.

I've been donating periodically and it was nice of the president to remind me to do so, see he occasionally does good things that don't immediately benefit him 😀

@StevenSavage If you donate - please remember that small monthly recurring donations are best - they represent steady income that allows for budgeting staff and equipment in a way that one time donations can’t, even if they’re large.

I normally donate once a year but this prompted me to donate twice: one more time to Wikipedia and another small donation to Internet archives https://archive.org,
A non-profit digital library.
