Conservapedia:What is going on at CP?/February 2018

Wigocp.svg This Conservapedia-related article is of largely historical interest and is no longer the focus of RationalWiki today.
Conservapedia (and religious fundamentalism to an extent) was a major focal point in the early history of RationalWiki, but long ago ceased coming up with new ways to appall and amuse.
Our energies are now spent debunking other, fresher examples of pseudoscientific claims, authoritarianism, and deceit.

February 2018[edit]

Stoneman Douglas High School shooting
The news the "MSM isn't fully covering" apparently includes the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas School, Florida, which Conservapedia tackles with its in-depth 42-word report.img
Update 1: Champion creationist Ken DeMyer takes a mere six edits to post his revolutionary insights about the Parkland school shooting on Mainpageright.img Spoiler: Darwin diddit.
Update 2: Huh. We may have found something too batshit insightful for Andy to countenance on Conservapedia. TerryH goes full Parkland truther,img and Andy quickly paints over the stain with a fresh coat of WTF.img

Most people who believe in the theory of evolution inevitably have bouts of depression.img
It may be that the only way to overcome that is to question the false belief system. (FSTDT link)

1990'sguy compared the Conservapedia article on Wokeimg with Wikipedia's, and concluded that there was impermissible copying from Wikipedia.img No wonder 1990'sguy can't detect bias in writing.

Dow plunges 666 points. Hmmm, 666???
Notice how most lamestream media headlines avoid saying the decline was 666 points.img

Andy once again claims the credit for lower Superbowl ratings,img despite doing nothing except having an "Unplug the Superbowl" article (in an encyclopedia), which Andy last touched — prior to the Superbowl — in September.img

Mystery:img Is Conservapedia a playpen for approximately 56-year-old adults behaving in utterly infantile ways?
Conservative once again proves Poe's Law with his brand new front page articles on Atheistic Chinese Eating Babiesimg (not to be confused with atheistic Chinese-eating babies) and a page on a meme about atheists eating babies.img
Aaannnddddd they're gone from the front page.img Because Ken isn't totally obsessed with this WIGO page.
