RationalWiki/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


These things about RationalWiki are subjective - not everyone will agree with all of them.

  • Acceptable Targets: Whites, heterosexual, males, religious people (with exception of Muslims), and any form of capitalism. RationalWiki condenses inside itself the racist, sexually discriminative, sexist, bigoted, and anti-capitalist aspects of the 2010s USA's left and its imitations on foreign countries.
    • However, note "Anvilicious" below. The opinion above is very similar to what right-wing fundamentalist Christian white heterosexual males call any website or wiki that treats them the same as everybody else. "Equal treatment" is not the same as "target".
  • Alas, Poor Villain:
    • Conservapedia administrator TK passed away in December 2010, eliciting this trope on RationalWiki.
    • RW noticed his absence and did the legwork to learn of his passing, while CP only seemed to learn of it afterwards (so quickly that it appears that they learned from RW), but have barely even noted the passing of one of their most prolific editors and authoritarian admins.
  • Anvilicious: Averted, mostly. Even the articles on religion seem to at least respect it as long as it isn't raging fundamentalism, though it is somewhat zigzagged with TempleOS author Terry A. Davis. While they did treat the subject with respect and only somewhat chastised him for his use of racial slurs, they concluded that he was simply a victim of reckless 4chan trolls cynically exploiting Davis's illness for the sake of morbid entertainment, and framed his tragic life story as a cautionary tale about living with a mental condition and how certain groups would capitalise on this to feed their lust for schadenfreude.
