  • Elon Musk announced plans for "Grokipedia," but the host expresses deep skepticism about whether any corporate solution can escape national security oversight.

Description

During an interview with Tucker Carlson, Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger pointed out that intelligence agencies like the CIA manipulate Wikipedia content for propaganda purposes. Jimmy discusses how anti-establishment or anti-war figures are unable to edit their own pages while establishment-friendly outlets such as The New York Times and CNN are approved as reliable sources. The segment also explores evidence of organized efforts by Israeli groups and Zionist organizations to influence Wikipedia’s coverage of Middle East issues. Jimmy concludes by mocking billionaire Elon Musk’s plan to create “Grokipedia” as a supposed free-speech alternative, expressing skepticism toward both corporate and government control over online information.

Israel's biggest export by far is propaganda.

Around 6-7 years ago I added to the German Wikipedia article on the Rothschilds that they bankrolled the Suez Canal construction. The administrator deleted it. I inquired why. He replied there’s no proof of that having happened. I wrote there’s a BBC documentary on YouTube where Hannah Rothschild herself says it in person on camera, standing behind Waddesdon Manor , one of the Rothschild‘s palaces outside of London. - The guy still wouldn’t accept it, mocking me for bringing up YouTube as a source, when the source was the BBC !

It's no wonder that YouTube uses Wikipedia to try and refute truth.

When I went to college, Wikipedia was not allowed. They had a big segment on how bad it was.
