Comment on Elon offers Wikipedia $ 1 billion to change their name to Dickipedia
LufyCZ@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 months agoHonestly, they’d be stupid not to take it.
Imagine how much you could do with a billion. It’d perpetually sustain the organization, it’d allow them to hire translators and writers, resulting in better content for all of us.
Hell, I’d take it, and 99.9% of people on this planet would too.

In practice organizations don’t have mechanizms to secure such amounts of money. It would be a massive cake to divide.

I don’t think it’s immoral, but who in their right mind takes Elon seriously? Would you really accept 1 billion dollar from a known scammer, if you tattoo your forehead? No thanks.

It’s honestly kinda perplexing.
Everyone keeps talking about taxing the rich but when someone offers to give a nonprofit we all love a billion dollars it’s suddenly the worst thing on the planet.

Are you that naive by choice or what?

Worst case, they can keep chugging along without any changes, except maybe stopping the donation “nag”.
