wikipedia, though, is fundamentally a community based on
certain shared views. Somebody who doesn't share the
most fundamental views of a community can't be a productive
member of that community. (Views that you don't have to
share to be a productive member are, by definition,
not fundamental views. Groups of people that don't
share fundamental views aren't communities)
Anybody who wants to be in a community of different
values can start a new one.
