Now is a good time to flood Wikipedia with donations. For the first time in my life, i have just donated to them and will do so again. You can do it too for a minimum of €2, no requirement for recurring donations or any nonsense.

    Wikipedia should counter by offering Elon $4 to go towards paying off his massive hole from buying Twitter. 😂

    Downvote Musk spam.

    The billionaire doesn’t need your help ensuring him and his businesses stay in the 24 hour news cycle. Don’t be a useful idiot.

    There's not one single person in the world who should own a thousand million dollars, never mind hundreds of thousands of millions of dollars.

    The pure existence of billionaires is unethical and immoral - doesn't matter whether they're being stupid and fascist in public, or quietly pulling strings and bending society to their will in the background.

    Tangential, but I've always wondered why in English 10^9 is one billion. 10^6 is one million. Twice as many zeroes should be one billion. Three times as many, one trillion, etc.

    So he’s offering that money to name it after himself?

    I’m not even clicking on that link, I never click on stuff with that turd’s name on the headline, just wanted to make the joke.

    1. Take Money.

    2. Re-Name to Dickipedia.

    3. Re-Name back to Wikipedia.

    4. Laugh about Musk.

    5. Profit.

    More evidence to support taxing the fuck out of billionaires. No one needs that much money.

    He's trying to distract from the probe into Tesla's range. It's working.

    Maybe Elon should just donate a billion because he supposedly cares about free information so much?

    I offer Elon $1 to change his name to Doge McCumStain. I hope he will accept my generous offer.

    To everyone thinking Wikipedia should go with the deal and then change the name back.

    It's like taking money for doing d*ck tatoo on forehead and then doing laser removal, humiliation. No foundation or company should show they are craving for money by doing anything someone would pay for.

    Sounds like a good idea for a wikipedia page. Put Elon's picture on it.

    What a fool. Why do we let the worst people take the most from us?

    For shits and giggles, the Foundation should absolutely get lawyers to put together a binding agreement to this effect and send it to Elon to sign.

    … and then watch him run away
