Talk:Koch Industries

This article is a joke
The hagiographic part on the political activity is an absolute joke. This is an encyclopedia, not a propaganda outlet for the GOP — Preceding unsigned comment added by 171.18.27.130 (talk) 11:23, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Russian invasion of Ukraine section
can you explain this edit? Is there a particular reason you are engaged in a POV push across multiple pages? Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 05:53, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Because of this article: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/koch-industries-russia-ukraine-business/. It seems pretty apparent you are the one doing the POV pushing, my friend. Comatmebro (talk) 15:42, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
 * And why don't you want us to use that article? Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 15:44, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

Article reads like it was written by employees
This article vastly downplays the interference the company has had in the American political system, including how it manipulated the selection of GOP candidates to ones that denied climate change and opposed taxation. 90.246.39.7 (talk) 21:08, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Koch line about the refinery in Germany gets outright copied
These edits of a user seem to be PR once again:. NPR says "And the Hamburg Oil Refinery, built by the Winkler-Koch Co., became key, according to several German historians I talked to, to Hitler's war efforts. By the time they built it, it was already clear that Hitler had very major military ambitions, but one of the things he was unable to do was to refine high-octane oil for warplanes." In the new edits it sounds like Koch was some small assist partner in a project that had nothing foreseeable to do with a war. On the other hand the statement of Koch's Robertson got outright copied as fact, instead of presenting it as the answer from Robertson to criticism. 2A02:810B:109F:F534:5DEA:8375:6BC0:C6F4 (talk) 18:29, 22 June 2023 (UTC) Surely you can't expect to make allegations like that without expecting the same in turn when you are pushing a pov on a page with a history of pov pushes? Using reliable sources and slicing off intended attacks, the section is not intended to be used as a criticism section. Please maintain neutrality. Uhtregorn (talk) 02:27, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

Environmental & safety record section
this whole section is densely worded and jammed with over-information its almost as if its intended to confuse and bore readers into ignoring the section's contents. I intend to significantly trim it down so that it reads well and you can actually ascertain the environmental and safety record of the company without obfuscation.

Asbestos
I don't see anything on the asbestos issue. Was this article written by Koch?
