Elon Musk's recent tweets suggest a campaign to delegitimize Wikipedia by framing it as a tool of 'far-left activists.' His comments reflect a wider trend among right-wing figures questioning the validity of information on the platform. Despite its vulnerabilities, Wikipedia has maintained a reputation for reliability, attributed to its openness and transparency. However, increasing attacks could jeopardize its perceived neutrality and raise concerns about the implications of diminished trust in widely used information sources.
Musk's repeated attacks against Wikipedia include calling it 'controlled by far-left activists' and urging followers to 'stop donating to Wokepedia.'
Wikipedia is a remarkably reliable platform in a decidedly unreliable age, despite criticisms of being a propaganda tool.
