    My favorite joke was when they included John Lennon on a list of communist dictators.


    Rationalwiki is kind of cursed.

    Other examples of human rights violation and crimes against humanity include include:

    • Cuba under Fidel Castro
    • North Korea
    • The German Democratic Republic and the StasiWikipedia
    • Yugoslavia Under Tito
    • Romania under Nicolae Ceaușescu

    And the list goes on and on.

        Then why are they socially progressive on most issues? And like, have the single best page on Gamergate on the whole internet?

        This doesn't track.

          It was mentioned on the most recent QAA. The founders were all former Conservapedia contributors who got put off/banned by Schlafly's creationism.

          Gives me strong New Atheist vibes any time I wind up there, so I wasn't shocked.

            I has some New Athiest things there but their positions on social issues are decidedly on the SJW side of things. Maybe that element got away from the founders or something.

              Probably a little of that but also in a vacuum lolbertarians tend to be socially accepting. I do feel like I've seen transphobic nonsense on there which also tracks with Dawkins thought.

            Not quiet leftist because their takes on AES countries and communism in general are really bad but definitely like, center-left and very definitely socially progressive.
