    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.
