People used to argue, straight faced with sincerely held good intentions, that you couldn't trust free software or wikipedia, because who would you call if it breaks? You don't really know where it all comes from!
But the answer is "people". The answer was always people, and no matter what you've heard from governments, media outlets or corporations, people are far more trustworthy than the average government or the typical media outlet or any corporation.
Bet on people who bet on people.
Chris Mackay 🇨🇦@mhoye The person who shouted loudest at me 20 years ago that you couldn’t trust anything on Wikipedia because credentialism has turned into a credulous fool in the years since.
@mhoye (Mind you, that credulity is also grounded firmly in blind credentialism.)

Hmm, I think I just wrote a new protest slogan for critical thinking and veganism.
