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. |

Essay:The Decline of American Entertainment
Entertainment in America has grown increasingly tolerant to liberal values, oversexualization of everything, more violence is portrayed, and swearing can be constant.
