2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' 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.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

  1. There's a lot of woo and shit surrounding Apple, and Apple itself is a notoriously exploitative corporation. It's missional. Oxyaena Harass 23:07, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
  2. Topic seems perfectly missional to me. We should actually have more corporation articles rather than less. Pizza SLICE.gifChef Moosolini’s Ristorante ItalianoMake a Reservation 23:28, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
  3. We would do well to focus on these sorts of people more, especially now that "woke branding" is a thing and they are trying to make themselves look better.-Flandres (talk) 23:49, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
  4. Apple would in my eyes go under "Explorations of authoritarianism". A large number of their factories are located in China (which is rather authoritarian) and they are notoriously walled garden with iOS (and increasingly so with OS X as time goes by). That walled garden has caused them to stick up for the Chinese government's authoritarianism by forbidding VPN applications (which could be used to get past the Great Firewall) from being allowed in the Chinese App Store. That alone makes them missional. Techpriest (I am Alpharius! / Pencil.png / Tux icon.png / Shield.png) 09:16, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

  1. If it reads more like a fun page, why not make it a fun page, instead? Thunderclapper (talk) 21:54, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
