Replace partisan language like 'conspiracy theorist', 'disproven theories' (because it is nearly impossible to disprove a theory with as many variables as election fraud) with more neutral, objective language. Spread conspiracy theories becomes spread allegations. If we don't make these changes, we threaten our credibility. I don't think we should even take a side on ancient history- we should present the facts as they are, and if people want to believe the world is flat that's their problem.

Mike Lindell

There are many bias opinions about Mike on his page. Here is one; "he spread false conspiracy theories about widespread electoral fraud in that election." This is a bias opinion. There has since been shown a plethora of cheating and fraud in the election. And, another; "Lindell promoted a conspiracy theory, popular with Trump supporters, that falsely claimed that voting machine companies Smartmatic and Dominion conspired with foreign powers to rig voting machines to steal the election from Trump. " This also has been proven forensically. I realize the "contributors" to wikipedia are all liberal left but articles or pages, if you will, should be fair. 24.192.189.140 (talk) 21:18, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources say. Those sources as well as every court in the land say they was no cheating or fraud that changed the result of the election. There was a guy in Pennsylvania who voted for Trump twice, but I digress. When you or Mr. Lindell get a court to say there was fraud, I'll change this article myself.
If we are all "liberal left", what are you doing here? If you only want to drink the Kool aid and only be told what you want to hear or even need to hear to justify Trump losing, this isn't the place for you. If you want to collaborate, please do and engage in discussion based on reliable sources, logical arguments, and Wikipedia guidelines. We can't and won't determine fraud here, but we can summarize sources. 331dot (talk) 01:08, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please describe the specific errors. Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources say. If you don't like what sources say about Mr. Lindell, you will need to talk to them, not us. 331dot (talk) 22:54, 22 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Additions to MyPillow section

In 2019, California district attorneys filed another complaint against MyPillow for continuing to disseminate false and misleading advertisements for its bed pillows by, among other things, inaccurately portraying a “clinical sleep study” in televised ads, which resulted in a Stipulated Final Judgment that required the company to pay $100,000 in civil penalties.[3][4]
