So i was bumbling around the internet and found this site "Rational Wiki"
rationalwiki.org
Anyone have any thoughts on them? They're dismissive of communism and socialism, based on the failed implementations in the 20th century, plus how marx "didn't get" economics
pic not related
i think it's supposed to be like encyclopedia dramatica but for liberal, it's shit. it's full of SJW crap
Isn't rationalwiki euphoric aut-right fedoracore?
what anime
liberal shit, but they really hate the aut-right
I assumed, but it was more objective than I expected from such a group. I think is right, definitely has a liberal tilt.
I love that meme, even though I'm pretty sure it was made by self-emasculating centrists.
also it's some art Bryan Lee O'Malley did for his new graphic novel series, worst world.
Hell no. just look at any page featuring right wingers
Bunch of libtard SJWs.
They're insane, unbearably smug SJW pseudo-intellectuals and I haven't even begun to use enough insults for them. Almost every page is unfunny, cancerous idpol bitching about conservatives, religious people, and anyone who doesn't glorify "science" and anything related to the scientific community.
No, it started as euphoric fedoracore but it was taken over by SJWs long before the alt-right.
Good for BTFOing conservative stupidity
Everything else.. meh
Can Holla Forums just edit it to be more accurate?
this
at least ED had a bit of a crude appeal
rational wiki just comes across as liberal fedora tier
anyone that refers to themselves as a rationalist in the 21st century should be gulag'd
You'll be banned instantly if you're not in their IRC.
Good on general scientific nonsense or whatever (dude magnets cure cancer lmao), weak on social issues, fuckawful on politics.
I read the first issue of his other new series, Snotgirl. Really critical of the narcissistic boujie online culture.
Spot the Holla Forumsyp
its debate club centerist liberals with sjw characteristics
Compare their pages on Islam and Christianity. Nuff said.
Me being offended at their offensive level of idpol and liberalism does not make me a Holla Forumstard.
I wanted to read that, regardless I loved Scott Pilgrim, and his last novel Seconds was very nice. Glad he's broken free of that chibi style though.
...
No, conservatives and religious people are retarded, but that doesn't change how cancerous and full of idpol the bitching on rationalwiki is. The scare quotes are there because like most internet scientismists they don't actually understand science and worship it blindly and are incapable of any freethinking when it comes to it.
What's with the downfall of internet encyclopedias in the past few years, anyway? Conservapedia stopped being completely insane and settled for slightly mad, Rationalwiki became a dyed-hair torture chamber, Dramatica's internet drama and edginess took a backseat to mainstream topics and "TRUMP TRUMP XDDD", and fuck me, probably even Uncyclopedia has changed.
Uncyclopedia stopped venerating Oscar Wilde in every article, I don't remember when.
What kind of "freethinking" are you referring to exactly?
Le chinese climate hoax?
Most likely referring to the spergs who venerate funny TV science men like Neil Degrasse Tyson and respond to every issue with "BUT MUH SCIENCE WILL FIX IT XDDD".
Think science 'fans', the type of people who go around saying "LOL I LOVE SCIENCE SO MUCH" and arguing with people over science, but could not name their favorite fields of science because to them it's just one monolithic entity with beakers, chemicals and computers.
Normalfags.
Actually understanding the data and stats and not just parroting whatever they're told. Also by realizing how corrupt and full of shit the scientific community is because it's full of p-hackers, status-quo defenders, and brown-nosers to capital.
Honestly it just sounds like you're being passive-aggressive tbh.
Wiki is Facts.
"Rational Wiki" is Feelings.
It's full on SJW shit, I mean they openly defend Anita Sarkeesian and so on.
lol
It's actually really good when you are debating with fascist/alt right or denialism or pseudoscience.
Scientific community is actually quite good and economics is not science.
"""Facts"""
They''re liberals, but part of me thinks they could be pushed further left if given the proper motivation.
alt-center autism actually
They're the epitome of woke liberals, in that capitalism is the best system we have and socjus or voting for liberals will fix most problems.
I agree with their fundamental claim that they're rational. But then I see Marx pretty much as a philosopher with economic interests - that is, I don't entirely trust his evaluation of economics, either.
What's the first place people tend to check for the "truth?" Wikipedia, or some wiki of choice.
Control the wiki and you control the Truth.
It's pretty great. Anyone here offended by it takes themselves too seriously.
Is a weasel word for "anyone who disagrees with the dominant position in the capital ruled scientific community"
It's horribly corrupt and broken, and never said economics was.
Thank you for introducing me to a top tier waifu
I'm really excited for this series cuz she's so damn cute
What are we talking about? There is a series with this semen demon?
It's a new graphic novel series from Bryan Lee O'Malley, dunno when its out, same guy who did Scott Pilgrim.
I think 3-4 books
What's it called?
Worst World i believe
Honestly he oughta be paying me for all this free advertising
I thought it was fanart of that Gunsmith Cats slut.
Ey, don't disrespect Minnie May now, girl was total qt
Can't wait
🍀🍀🍀O'Malley🍀🍀🍀
Don't fall for their girls!
Holla Forums fags
Its articles on scientific skepticism (which are themselves critical of false claims of scientific fact, which is not in itself political) can be good, but these are wholly wasted by the liberal fuckery prevalent throughout the site, so no one takes it seriously.
Right wing cucks that don't like facts.
They had an autistic piece of shit as a mod.
He was a refugee from wikipedia, and they soon found out why as his toxic presence started to take a toll on their site.
But they refused to fire him, because if they did, they had to admit that Gamergate had a point.
It's a smug liberal shitfest. Basically Bill Maher: the website.
No it isn't, they have like 5 different pages mocking lolberg and other freemarket shills and are usually critical of consumer culture and the effects of market fundamentalism on society. They have a very leftist view of history too.
Their liberalism is only really apparent when they touch on Marxism and Revolutionary Socialism, and even then they often show deeper knowledge of the theory involved and are only critical of the implementation and ideological justification, that's the position non-ML Communist Parties around the world tend to adopt too.
