Don't forget his "If a friend ever calls you and says they're lost on Martin Luther King Boulevard, tell them: RUN!!!"

HAHAHAA! By removing the crime data to further their fair housing agenda, they are admitting that blacks and Hispanics commit more crime than whites and Asians.

This is pure virtue signaling, though. A house is the largest purchase anyone will ever make. No one is going to be like "Well, realtor.com doesn't have any crime data for this neighborhood, so I guess it's safe." They are going to look up the data from other sites. And they are going to look up the data on the local public schools.

If they really wanted to be thourough, they'd remove the data regarding schools. School test scores are just a proxy for the racial composition of a school.

There's not so much right-wing infiltration as there is /r/stupidpol infiltration. They are leftists who oppose identity politics in favor of working-class unity. A bunch of them got banned for going to /r/antiwork because the losers that run antiwork are obsessed with BLM, transgenderism, and feminism.

They should do a similar survey and ask people in Asia what percentage of Americans they think are gay.

Wikipedia used to be dominated by nerds. So much that they had to delete a bunch of articles that were "fancruft" (i.e. someone would make a wiki page about some character from the Star Wars novels). Then it got more professional, but at its core it was still nerds.

It was always left-leaning, but in the last five or six years it's gone off the deep-end. Every article that somehow relates to race or gender sounds like it was written by someone with 3 liberal arts degrees and $200,000 in student debt.

My favorite is how every reference to a black person as a "slave" has been replaced by "enslaved person." "Slave owners" are now "enslavers" or "slavers." Which makes no sense, because those terms used to mean someone who captured or procured slaves (i.e. "Kuante Kinte was captured by Mandika and English slavers."). Of course, this doesn't apply to white slaves. Spartacus is still described as a "slave" still, as are the "Chistian slaves" liberated in the Barbary Wars.

Their neutral point of view (NPOV) policy, which was the cornerstone of Wikipedia when I started reading it in 2003 or so basically means now that not all points of view are equal.

And they even have a "deadnaming" policy now, too. If you aren't familiar with the lastest SJW lingo, if someone who is born a man decides to call himself a woman and changes his name, if you refer to him by his old name, you are deadnaming him. Wikipedia's deadnaming policy now is that you shouldn't mention someone's birth name unless they were well known before they transitioned (i.e. Bruce Jenner).

Wikipedia claims to have a no censorship policy and also claims to be an encyclopedia, but they deliberately omit information. It's kind of like how after George Floyd (PBUH) Ascended into Heaven, newspapers and wire agencies like the AP decided to stop showing mugshots of criminals and to stop printing the names of people arrested for misdemeanors. Of course, it's completely fine to doxx people who get into an argument in public with a black person.
