Just another person complaining that "Wikipedia is soooo POV in this way... and that way," "wikipedia is full of idiot writing useless articles," and "it's horribly sexist and racist!"

I am still trying to figure out what she meant by "village tool"... does anyone else know?

-X!

It makes more sense if you did out the previous post:

Apparently the problem is that wikipedian are following the general trend of writeing about white men (actually wikipedians mostly writes about inanimate objects). NOR makes this fairly inevitable. Given a few centuries the only bits of history that people remember are the bits written in blood and over the the last few centuries European males have had rather a lot of such history while keeping their civilisations intact enough to write about it.
