    There are thousands of Wikipedia administrators, and they’re voted in by the community. The people who actually run Wikipedia are Bureaucrats.

    The 3 editors your referring to are bot accounts that do things like archive pages and format things consistently.

    Please learn more before spouting blatant lies, thanks :)

        You can’t just drop links and racism and pretend that’s an argument. Your post talked about administrators, I explained why that’s wrong. That goal post stays where it is.

          Errr parent comment was troubling, but your claiming that calling out whiteness is “racism” is even more troubling. I don’t know a single place on earth where anti-white racism is a thing, despite fascists claiming that. To be clear, some anti-white resentment does exist in white-supremacist regions, but resentment is not racism or rather is a small subset of racism and not the actual problem that we more precisely call “structural racism”. (see also the wikipedia pages on those topics :))

            resentment is not racism

            I left Ruqqus for the stupid racism there, didn’t expect to find it on Lemmy

            That aside, I agree with most of what you said. My post was just to call out CriticalResist for running behind text walls after posting patently false info

              Yea i agree the original comment was inappropriate, but please be careful when using such a loaded word as “racism” just because someone spelled “white” or “black” :P

              I also strongly recommend you read the wikipedia page on reverse racism, aka anti-white racism. Have a good day!

                  WTF? Are you suggesting anti-white racism is a thing? Funny idea for someone who likes to think of themself as anti-imperialist… If you’re instead suggesting that i said anti-white racism is a thing please read the comments again i was saying the exact opposite.
