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 like how there’s no mention about tankies fighting fascism and imperialism in this article[edit]

Biased much? Such as Mao, who was an avowed antifascist. TankieAndProud (talk) 20:40, 27 February 2025 (UTC)

It's irrelevant to the topic. Being an antifascist or not is not determinative of being a tankie. The criterion for being a tankie is defending communist abuses (the Holodomor, the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, Soviet purges, the Great Leap Forward, etc.) after the facts are indisputable. FYI, our Communist glossary was co-authored with a self-described communist (User:AprilIsTrying). Bongolian (talk) 21:23, 27 February 2025 (UTC)
