A missed opportunity; they could have sorted out the Fram case while Maria was away. :B'

Still, I'm sure we all wish Maria and family well.

It looks like someone left their child unsupervised and they threw a tantrum on Reddit about this thread. You know, for someone who claims to be a feminist, JackTheJiller writes exactly like a Red Piller. I'm surprised that the word "cuck" didn't get used.

For much of the last year, rather than doing serious criticism, the panty sniffers of Wikipediocracy wanked themselves into a frenzy over some batshit conspiracy theory wherein the women who heads the WMF, supposedly did her partner, a volunteer woman Wikipedia editor, a solid, by telling her horde of flying monkees (the ones with sharks for laser beams on their monkey dicks) to swoop down on some poor innocent anonymous Wikipedia volunteer who goes by the name Fram (who is most definitely more Frank than Framchesca) and banninate him forever and ever. It's total horseshit, but it plays right into the wet dreams of all the scummy Wikiassholes who call that forum their second home - everything bad that happens to them is not only never their fault, it is a woman's fault. Hating women being kind of a thing for Wikipedia editors, because, well, they were incels before incels were a thing. They just used their awesome power to create knowledge in their image as their weapon, which is just easier to do than have to go all the way down to the store to buy a pressure cooker, a hundred weight of nails and a pack of C4. So these sexually frustrated fools went on and on and on, until even they were bored of it. Nothing came of it, because it is horseshit. The scandal over the ban proceeded along the lines that anyone who knew what had really caused it (Fram being an asswipe, Wikipedia editors being surprised to find out they're not supposed to be asswipes, the WMF having to remind them they all signed a piece of paper that says don't be asswipes) could have predicted. So the Wikipediocracy folk, they're mad that they never quite got one or both of these women to take a ladyshave to their wrists, and in reality only achieved what any average middle-ranking scum there can, to force a women volunteer to decide they no longer want to deal with their collective shit-piggery. But boy, did they try, led by their heroic inspirator, the one they call Vigilant. Which kind of sounds like Vaginut, when you think about it. I watched all this unfold, and alternated between mocking these poor fools, and calling them sickos. When not doing that, I wondered aloud, would there ever be a blog post, outlining this conspiracy theory in one nice small package, something you could take to your bosom in under ten minutes. But nope. Vaginut was the obvious author, but he flopped when it came to fulfilling his big part. Others tried to convince us of their prowess, but they too, seemed to shrivel up, when the time came. So they produced buck diddly in terms of useful content, just fifty million words of crazy scattered across a forum, like all the other tin foil hat wearers out there. As of right now, you'd never even know it all happened. Handy for us then, then, that the good news that this couple are expecting a baby, got under their foreskins so much, they posted a reminder. And not just from anyone, but the creepy old dude who is the sole Trustee of that wingnut forum, the bloke who is quite proud of the fact that when he turns up at Wikipedia events with his knapsack of marmalade sandwiches, no added nails, they welcome him like a brother. For this is what Wikipediocracy is all about, since he took over the reigns, some years ago, first as Administrator, now as Trustee. You cuddle up to the worst of the scum in the volunteer ranks, to help them fight their evil overlords, those horrible people whose miserable lot in life is to have achieved so little, they can only earn a salary by being associated with a pile of dog-poop like Wikipedia. The combined forces of Wikipediocracy and the worst of the worst volunteers in Wikipedia, couldn't come up with a single thing that would persuade anyone that they don't have a screw loose when it comes to this theory. A narrative which, if only someone could stand up even a part of it, would be the Wikipedia scandal ultimatoro. Step aside Essjay, see you later Seiegenthaler. What a coup it would have been. But no. Those fucking losers, did what they do best, and brought embarrassment on all of us. We all lose, when critics suck as badly as this. Not least because during that year, a lot of bad shit was done by Wikipedia, corporates and volunteers alike, stuff that did actually need highlighting by the supposedly preeminent investigators of corruption on Wikipedia.

CrowsNest, AKA MickMacNee (T-C-L), loves using nasty slurs towards the disabled as well. He attacked someone on Wikipedia Sucks who had the nerve to disapprove of such behaviour.
