What the hell?
Edit - Quoting @Allero@lemmy.today
Wikipedia is not currently banned in Russia. But the Russian branch of Wikimedia as an organization is. Also, pretty much nobody in Russia uses Ruwiki, everyone keeps using Wikipedia.
That’s all not to say it isn’t a troubling development, though. But Russians are more likely to access Wikipedia through VPN than to rely on Ruwiki. The game’s not lost.

by the failson of the notorious 1970s political harpy Phyllis Schlafly.

The entry on Marijuana is absolutely wild.
This is something that some people read and genuinely believe whole. This is 10,000% propaganda. Just unbelievable.

It’s just straight up Russian propaganda now.
Its extremely American propaganda.

My favorite part is the article on, well, conservatives, in which they don’t actually define anything until the second section and just open the article with:
“A conservative promotes moral and economic values beneficial to all”
