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

Martin Luther King Jr. was a [[concern troll]]

Jump to: navigation, search

You're equating MLK's effort to end discrimination with a twat whining about finding unsuitable images while he's surfing the Internet from work? Fuck - yes, you just did that. You really are a moron.

I'm just saying, not every complaint is concern trolling.

So you're JAQing off? Maratwat was concern trolling, as usual. No question.

SuspectedReplicant retire me00:35, 11 September 2011

So my example was a little extreme. But is it absurd for Maratrean to want to be able to go on RW at work without getting in trouble for a bunch dongs being on his screen?

You do realise the actual point is that Nx's extension has a bug in it - he forgot to deal with the category pages. Nx needs to fix his code. I'm helping Nx by letting him know that. Funny how helping a programmer by letting them know about a bug in their code is "trolling"...

Concern Troll

SuspectedReplicant retire me00:37, 11 September 2011

Oh grow up.

ADK...I'll jerk your vortex!00:39, 11 September 2011

Totally agree. Maratwat needs to grow up and learn not to bother the adults.

SuspectedReplicant retire me00:41, 11 September 2011

Hey SuspectedRelicock!! How witty...

Look, it's stupid and childish on all fronts. Don't pretend to be one of the adults when you're not.

ADK...I'll deter your whip!00:44, 11 September 2011

Are you seriously so divorced from reality that you can't spot Concern Trolling when you see it? Fucking get a better pair of specs and stop bothering me until then.

SuspectedReplicant retire me00:45, 11 September 2011

I can spot when people overuse the word "troll" for their own ends. In fact, most (not all, though) instances of "trolling" I've ever seen are, in fact, not trolling at all but people merely labeling it as such. I think people are too eager to jump on the "concern trolling" bandwagon because they're a little too sensitive of criticism and the fact - shock of horrors - they may not be universally agreed with. Importantly, I don't think anyone is innocent of that.

ADK...I'll nuke your hovel!00:52, 11 September 2011

Yadda yadda yadda. Presumably you've read the comments of everybody else who thinks he's a troll? If you have, go and annoy them instead of me. If not, go and do some reading instead of spreading your ignorance everywhere. Go on - off you fuck.
