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!

I ain't one of these. A party that singles out one editor for mention? Lame. ħumanUser talk:Human 05:31, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Give me a break. The status of MarcusCicero is undeniably one of the most contentious issues on the Wiki and so it's only reasonable that any party take a position on it. His singular agency has been the driving force behind a number of instances of HCM. I do not anticipate the RPP taking positions with respect to the demotion and/or banning of other specific users, including RobSmith, Maratrean, or JimJast. I never anticipated that you would be among our ranks, as you don't really support the other planks either...
My hope is not that the RPP will sow division, but that a party system will single out specific issues among which compromise is possible and make such compromises easier to reach. --95.154.230.191 (talk) 05:44, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
This could use some serious copyediting to fix the endless typos. And MC is not the "giant huge issue" except for those who hate him for calling them out on their authoritarianism. ħumanUser talk:Human 05:59, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
Oh parties are a great idea. More factionalization among the 30 people who even give a shit is exactly what we need. It's like there are two sites. What people who come here to look at on mission articles see and what some authoritarians who want to change the social part of the community ienvision. They've partly succeeded by pushing more and more rules with little concern for fair outcomes. I see that's potentially consistent with the platform of this "party". Banning MC had 0 to do with writing on mission material. It was iron fisted cult of personality bullshit. Fucking parties. Get over yourself.
