Colleges offering credit to put feminist viewpoints on wikipedia

Purposefully inserting bias into one of the largest collections of information mankind has ever known, is evil. Terribly evil, people go to Wikipedia to learn not to be manipulated. They have dealt with situations like this before with groups purposefully changing articles smearing republican candidates and inserting political bias (i'm not a republican but this was still very wrong) . They have a system for dealing with this, the question is will they?

Replace "Colleges" with "Seminaries" and "feminist viewpoints" with "Christian viewpoints", and see what uproar occurs.

It appears that "feminist thinking" is not currently an entry in Wikipedia at all

That's because it's an oxymoron.

Marx would be proud. This kind of alteration of reality through the alteration perception is straight from his book.

That story should be at the top: this is how institutional feminism works, by brigading students to waste their time and the taxpayer's money to insert propaganda into an academic ressource.

For academic credit.

You want to know how you fight a culture war? That's how. You infiltrate the academia, and insert your dogma into those who'll be tomorrow's educators. Bribe them with credit, with career advancements, with networking, while pretending to be an embattled minority all along.

Then use your influence to spread your lies even further into books, op-ed columns, "expert" testimonies and course material. Rewrite, rewrite, rewrite. And if you can do it on the taxpayer's dole, all the better.

That's how the blue pill is made, ladies and gentlemen.

Reminds me of how the Men's Rights Movement article has had the sentence "The men's rights movement's claims and activities have been critiqued by scholars and others, and sectors of the movement have been described as misogynist." for months now, and the statement still hasn't been taken off, even after months of edit wars, talk pages, arguments, and comparisons to comparable women's rights articles.

I'm disgusted by how ubiquitous women's studies/feminist theory is in academia. It lends them so much undeserved respect. Maybe it's worth a few courses, but an entire degree, complete with positions in the college's educational/political hierarchy? Why? It's nothing more than a political viewpoint milled into a degree - a bunch of loosely associated general education courses filtered and diluted by being run through a feminist lens.

And so here it is, the actualization of this "area of study". The active corrosion and corruption of what is supposed to be an impartial, all-inclusive, information-centric fount of universal human knowledge. But thanks to them, it's a giant shitslinging political argument.

Wikipedia is already overwhelmingly feminist in gender-related articles. The 'Feminism' article reads like an advertisement, and the edit section has a stern warning not to add any criticism, even though most people, including 80% of Americans, reject feminism. Any edit that includes a MRM viewpoint is removed within minutes for 'bias'. The 'Rule of Thumb' article is a joke.

Every college has a 'Feminist Studies' department turning out SJWs and fake 'research' that demonizes men. This is just one result.

You mean folks with interests are polluting the Wikipedia?

How could they...
