A complete dissection of the history of the David Woodard editing scandal as told by an Oregonian Wikipedian. The video is sectioned into multiple miniature documentaries about various bastards and can be watched piece-by-piece. Too long to watch? Read the link above.

too long, didn't watch, didn't read, summarize anyway

David Woodard is an ethnonationalist white supremacist whose artistic career has led to an intersection with a remarkable slice of cult leaders and serial killers throughout the past half-century. Each featured bastard has some sort of relationship to Woodard, revealing an entire facet of American Nazism which runs in parallel to Christian TREACLES, passed down through psychedelia. occult mysticism, and non-Christian cults of capitalism.

      Hasn’t Falun Gong had beef with Wikipedia for a long time? I have a vague recollection of reading about that, but I do not know where.

          Was there ever, like, a push by Falun Gong to whitewash their articles? I seem to recall gossip from somebody (maybe in a skeptics’ group) about that, but I have no idea where in Wikipedia’s deep drama holes to look for evidence of it.
