@molly0xfff shout out to Wikipedians!
Added to my collection https://raindrop.io/fromjason/ice-65512649
@molly0xfff Perhaps Wikipedia should move the records outside USA jurisdiction
@molly0xfff Time to send more donations to Wikipedia!
@molly0xfff I would say "especially when" tbh
This is why I consider my volunteer editing on #Wikipedia to be the most important job of my life. An accurate record of the atrocities of this administration must be preserved.
@molly0xfff ME (25 years ago): Wikipedia sounds a little sketchy. Best to go with traditional media sources.
ME (now): Thank God for Wikipedia.
@molly0xfff
Another reason why Wikipedia remains so important and will always have a raison d'être!
@molly0xfff Maybe if the governor would keep his mouth shut a s stop the lies, Two people would alive today.
(A more immediately relevant answer to the perennial "why is there something rather than nothing?")
@molly0xfff
noe i got it, why they ... maybe elon musk wanted to shut down wikipedia, and build grokipedia.
pre-emptively.
I donate to Wikipedia.
@molly0xfff A few days into this regime, I started compiling articles of impeachment for officials. After a few, I stopped, just too painful to do of my own volition.
@molly0xfff thanks for sharing Molly! You’re absolutely correct, the record /does/ matter.

@molly0xfff Every bit of support from you, whether sharing or donating, lights the way for my children in these difficult times.
@molly0xfff I hope capable and effective people have started Project Nuremberg in prep for that day of reckoning and justice.
None of these lists are exhaustive. None of these lists could be exhaustive. And that is a damnation in and of itself: that there are enough thoroughly-documented, air-tight incidents of each of these to have their own Wikipedia page, but that this isn't even a tenth of what's really there.
Wikipedia's editors are brave as hell and some of the heroes we desperately need.
@molly0xfff also, it's only January and there's a disambiguation page for Minnesota ICE Shootings
