"Wikipedia’s editors declared that the Anti-Defamation League cannot be trusted to give reliable information on the Israel-Palestine conflict, and they overwhelmingly said the ADL is an unreliable source on antisemitism. It’s a stunning rebuke to one of the world’s preeminent authorities on anti-Jewish hate and a significant advocate for the rights and causes of American Jews."

@OliverNoble Really? Wikipedia is Hamas?

I suspect the hugely diverse world that constitutes Wikipedia would be very surprised to learn that, as would the billions who use Wikipedia daily.

@wdlindsy its a sarcastic comment (hence the /s)
I will edit it, to make that clear

@OliverNoble I'm sorry I misunderstood and sorry to be so obtuse and uneducated — not to know what /s means! You've taught me something, and I appreciate that.

@wdlindsy no need to be sorry
I am fairly new to social media and quite late on life so I have made all kinds of gaffs by misunderstanding posts or missing the point

/s is really useful, especially if running out of characters, but i will try to avoid it and use /sarcasm
