Thanks for the point dang. Is it just me find it disturbing that the original article's referencing page is gone, and now we had to go to wayback machine to get a copy.

A bit off topic are there any BitTorrent/ipfs effort to archive archive.org ?

We don't, they just don't have their redirects in order https://www.vice.com/en/article/the-totalitarian-buddhist-wh...

archive.org is definitely not preferred when there are other places to access an old article. It's ok when there isn't.

Simply googling the title is usually enough to find an article's new home, when there is one.
