What is Wikipedia hiding?

What IS Wikipedia hiding? Who are they working for? Are they in the pocket of a big corporation?

On last night's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Jon Stewart announced to the world, via television, directly in front of Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales that he was Batman.[1]

Since that time, numerous people have ventured to Wikipedia to edit Jon Stewart's entry to include this important information, and numerous Wikipedia moderators have removed such edits. At one point, Jon Stewart's page was locked. A discussion then began on Jon Stewart's Wikipedia discussion/talk page. During the discussion, moderators AGAIN stifled discussion and freedom of information, locking the discussion and hiding it.

Well, what are they hiding?

Is Wikipedia in the pocket of a big corporation? Perhaps Wayne Enterprises, whose founder Bruce Wayne is most-commonly associated with the Batman persona? Perhaps he utilizes such a persona to strike fear into his competitors (and employees), but is actually NOT Batman. A small payout to Wikipedia is all that it would take to continue to hide the truth: JON STEWART IS BATMAN.

Wikipedia moderators state that such an extraordinary claim requires an extraordinary source. I say that Jon Stewart IS an extraordinary source, as he is, in fact, Batman. However, let us note important historical facts about people "admitting" to being Batman:

  • When Batman simply repeated a line to Rachel Dawes, she believed that he was Bruce Wayne, and that Bruce Wayne was therefore Batman. Was Batman an extraordinary source? Was one line of cheesy dialogue enough to prove that someone was someone else?

  • When Gotham District Attorney Harvey Dent stated to the public, in front of the police and some local news crews, that HE was Batman (which turned out to be untrue), he was immediately arrested and everybody ran with the story. If saying he was Batman to a group of local news people and police was good enough for Harvey Dent, how come when Jon Stewart announces it on national television, Wikipedia won't even run with it?

So, as you can see, when it comes to other people, one simple statement is enough to "prove" that they are Batman. But when it comes to Jon Stewart and Wikipedia, it is not. If it's enough for the police, why isn't it enough for Wikipedia?

Well, I'll tell you why: It's a conspiracy! This conspiracy involves large sums of money, payouts from numerous sources (I imagine DC Comics is in on it, too), and an overall police-state mentality on Wikipedia.

Who will stand with me and take up the sword of truth and fight Wikipedia and their co-conspirators, finally proving to the world that JON STEWART IS BATMAN!?

Should homeschoolers get a tax break?

FUCK NO.

Apparently, the GOP wants to give them one. Why? Because they aren't using the public school funds. Well, why the hell would they get a tax break if I don't? I don't have a child, so I'm not using those funds either. You know what else I don't use? The police, the fire department, social services, unemployment, the military, etc. And guess what? I still have to pay taxes that support all of those things. Hell, I went to school in Chicago, didn't own a car, and thus never drove on a road. I did this for over a year-and-a-half. Did I get a tax break for not using the roads? Fuck no.

So, why all of a sudden does the GOP want to help these people out? And why are they not trying to help out people without kids? Because they're fucking assholes, that's why. Because they LIKE homeschooling. Because homeschooling is most often used by batshit religious nuts conservative Christians to keep their kids free of the evil, Satanic libruhl influences of the public school system.

You're just not playing fair on this one, GOP.
