@theo@maria_rcks I was glad to see you take a stand against this racist, pretty crazy to watch most of the scene just accept the heinous Replacement Theory shit he says.
My uncle performed the first Minion autopsy out near Marietta. Year was ‘89. Thick, thick skin, like a boar’s. Downstairs was all cloaca. Kevin still visits the grave
@TheGingerBill@cmuratori There are a variety of reasons to prefer secondary sources. An encyclopaedia is inherently downstream, those sources establish notability & prevent original research. They overprivilege American journalism. But if all academic sources are bought, truth is dead anyway 🤷
@TheGingerBill@cmuratori Everybody considers themselves a specific case, and then Wikipedia becomes a platform for advertisement rather than verifiable facts (verifiable by virtue of the fact they've gone through peer review or some sort of editorial process). Reliance on academia is a feature, not a bug
