Stub[edit]

Is that it? Very stubby! 193.113.235.173 07:00, 30 December 2007 (EST)

Though an undisputed genius Oppenheimer had been suckered[edit]

  • "Sucker: a gullible person, or a person who can, without batting an eyelash, swallow a load of bullshit whole. "

Rationalwiki editors are on their way to do for Rationalwiki what they've done for Conservapedia. nobsdon't bother me 06:38, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

You know how much ListenerX loves communism. Also, what are we supposed to have done for conservapedia? Mei III (talk) 06:46, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
Unfortunately, there is not a very high correlation between intelligence and lack of gullibility. Many intelligent people were made suckers of by the Reds, especially when they employed the Popular Front advertising campaign. Mjollnir.svgListenerXTalkerX 07:41, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
Just call it liberal deceit, or leftist deceit, or extremne leftist deceit, or something like that. So, we can conclude from ListenerX's edits, there is not a very high correlation between rationality and swallowing a line of bullshit whole. And that leftist deceit has made even the most undisputablely intelligent geniuses gullible. You guys are on your way to becoming a trustworthy source of information. nobsdon't bother me 10:45, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
