      While I do wish they’d cut back their spending in order to build up enough of an endowment to be good forever, that whole thread just reads like a crappy hit piece where someone is mad that Wikimedia contributes to social and more liberal causes.

      My opinion is probably different than a lot of folks’. But when we’ve got billionaires using their ridiculous amounts of money to buy the United States and trying to do the same elsewhere in the world, I’d rather keep supporting an org that aligns with beliefs that aren’t fascist, racist, evil, etc. and Wikipedia is one of the best parts of the internet still, so I like supporting them in general.

      That being said, I appreciate the read, it was interesting.
