        I don't know how people can unironically use self-congratulatory labels in general. I'd argue that there is a similar case for the word 'progressive' as used by liberals.

            Rationalism has a specific meaning, but yeah, I'm not really sure why anybody would consider themselves rationalists in the sense of claiming that there is no way of studying the world other than rationalist ones (as opposed to, for example, empirical studies).
