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!

Coulter example wrong[edit]

Whatever one might think of her, Coulter [in what is quoted] obviously doesn't say , so it's embarrassingly wrong to take her statement as an example.---85.0.253.68 (talk) 11:36, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Strictly speaking you're correct but the 'Maybe' is the giveaway and why this says 'implied'. Coulter, while covering her back with the 'maybe' is letting confusion of the inverse imply that all Muslim's are terrorists. The dog whistle is quite clear.
