Of course the community driven, anarchic nature of Wikipedia is a threat to the status quo of capitalists dominating society. Musk can't stand this, because it shows how ultra wealthy, incompetent dicktators like him are unnecessary.
Wikipedia is anything but anarchy. There's so much bureaucracy it would surprise even Kafka.
I also don't think Elon's psyche is built around an abstract notion of economic systems. He's simply a narcissist that desires shiny things, in a very basic and unrefined way. Rich people just want to add baubles to their menagerie.
Can we just put a bell on him at this point and let him run around in his own birthday party?
Community driven? Wikipedia? That shit has mods worse than reddit admins.
Wikipedia is by its own standards a propaganda organ for the status quo (a mainstream encyclopedia that summarizes mainstream science, history and journalism).
Time to put your tinfoil hat on and refuse to check any references for yourself.
