RationalWiki's 2019 Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff – we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

If everyone seeing this today donates $5, we will meet our goal for 2019.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

Donations so far: $2900Goal: $6000

Powers. Back Now. Please.

So now they're useful, eh?

i had actually considered removing my sysop rights during my attempted 30 minute cool down, and i noticed that except for my own self-giving of auto patrolled rights, my rights log consisted one one event: my sysop :D,

Oh, they're useful. Just as soon as he gets them back, he gets to use them to needlessly block all my backup accounts!

User rights: great for harassing people you don't like.

do you ever stop to think this is entirely your fault he doesn't like you?

il'Dictator Mikal01:53, 10 April 2012

I don't care that he doesn't like me. He's shown his true colors long ago, and I don't like him either. I haven't done anything wrong, I haven't broken any rules, and I'm getting picked on regardless.

It doesn't matter that I'm unpopular. Popularity is not a factor in justice.

"Shut up, Brx."02:01, 10 April 2012

Really? That's amazing because im pretty sure popular people have gotten away with some pretty light sentences that get normal people long jail time.

il'Dictator Mikal02:02, 10 April 2012

Yeah, next time someone gets wrongfully convicted, you go tell them it's their fault for not being pretty enough.

"Shut up, Brx."02:06, 10 April 2012

"Justice." "Wrongfully convicted." For Christ's sake, it's a marginal website, not the Nuremberg Laws. Stop taking yourself so seriously. If I go to a party and a bunch of people there really don't want me there, I find another party. I don't call the UN and scream about persecution.
