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 understand quite little of that but I assume the proliferation of Austrian cranks and Schiff-tards is something that's worth fighting off (:

Definitely. Austrian school is so spectacularly stupid -- it's so wrong it's not even wrong from top to bottom. It's the economic equivalent of creationism. That's pretty bad considering there is no economic equivalent of evolution. Being so obviously wrong in a field where there are very few "right" answers is really an accomplishment. :D

I would not discount it quite so totally, but its a priori nature cripples it badly.
