Conservapedia: American conservatives have their own batshit crazy Wikipedia

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      You know how some conservatives have problems with the so-called liberal media? Well, these right-wingers have issues with Wikipedia too. Luckily, in the U.S., they have Conservapedia.

      Started in 2006, Conservapedia calls itself a "clean and concise resource for those seeking the truth". It's got an article titled "Examples of Bias in Wikipedia", which links to extensive lists of supposed leftist bias on topics from abortion to zoophilia.

      For shits and giggles, let's take a quick tour of Conservapedia's often-hallucinogenic pages on topics controversial with social conservatives.

      Here's what Conservapedia says about feminism:

      Specifically, a modern feminist denies or downplays differences between men and women, opposes the encouragement of homemaking and child-rearing for women, and seeks to participate in predominantly male activities, possibly including sexual intercourse with women.

      On gay rights:

      Conservatives also oppose attempts by homosexual activists to indoctrinate children by using liberal tactics such as tolerance or forcing diversity programs onto children in schools which strongly encourage the acceptance of homosexual behavior. Notable figures including Tony Perkins have expressed concerns. As any logical examination of the world would have one conclude, tolerance is an insidious construct which breeds relativism and lack of judgment.

      On affirmative action:

      Though liberals whine about how bad racial profiling is, they promote affirmative action, which is essentially the same thing as racial profiling.

      On atheism:

      The history of the atheist community and various studies regarding the atheist community point to moral depravity being a causal factor for atheism. In addition, there is the historical matter of deceit being used in a major way to propagate atheism from the time of Charles Darwin onward.

      On the Big Bang Theory:

      Some creationists argue that the Big Bang theory is part of an effort to deny God's creation of all of existence. Christian physicists, such as Dr. John Hartnett, have claimed that the Big Bang theory was constructed to account for serious pitfalls to the theory of evolution, particularly the needed timescale of billions of years, amply contradicted by terrestrial and astronomical evidence. Thus, the big bang is trotted out by atheist evolutionists to silence creationist opponents.

      On evolution:

      ‎There have been significant and negative social ramifications of the adoption of the theory of evolution. The theory has been foundational to Social Darwinism, Nazism and Communism and has also been a source of racism.

      On Barack Obama:

      Gerald Celente one of America's finest trend forecasters, he predicted the fall of communism when liberals thought it would last forever and predicted the 2008 financial collapse when liberals thought everything was just fine. Calente says that if Barack Obama is reelected the economy will further crumble, leading to mass homelessness, food riots and turning our cities into disaster zones where kidnapping and ransom are the biggest industries. Real Americans, fed up with big government may revolt, but it at that point it may be too late. Around the world the situation will be even worse, with the "blackest of plagues" running rampant.

      Arm yourselves liberals & progressives; don't let these conservatards be the only ones with weapons... They will use them.

      Lest we forget.

      Oh, and they've had a silent coup in this country, do <b>not</b> think we're isolated from the fascist crazies.

      Don't worry, when it's all over we can we can happily turn our "swords" into "ploughshares" (or "plowshares" if you prefer the 'Merkan spelling).

      I'm from Canada (thank Christ!), the oily bit. All I can say is we're armed to the god damned teeth up here, and we can go on for miles and miles. If you crazy f*cking Yanks (yeah that's what we call y'all) ever try pushing that shit up here it's gonna be messy. Stay the f*ck out!

      On the downside, you can't use it to cheat on homework unless you live in the bible belt, zing!

      I am glad I am so smart that my world-view is shaped only by what publicly-funded University professors tell me. That is surely the hallmark of a well-formed mind, is it not?

      Now excuse me while I go tear up some humanities journals---my birdcage needs liner.

      Yes universities are brain washing our kids and turning them into liberal thinkers! How dare they try and expand these kids minds..... quick shut that shit down so we can raise a generation of people scared of everything around them they don't understand.

      Shit we publicly fund some of those university's? Let's shut that shit down like we just did with katimavik. We clearly need more sheep in this country and fewer people with ideas that challenge my own!

      LOL

      "various studies regarding the atheist community point to moral depravity being a causal factor for atheism"

      I'm an atheist and I approve this message.(have you seen the "morals" of the bible? - Yeah, that's why).

      btw:
      @Jack, you're easily the best troll we've got around here. Nice work, sir.

      The best thing about hate propoganda like this is its ability to disdcredit itself.
      We need atheists otherwise the churches would have us back in the controlling dark ages where women were on par with livestock.
      Morallity is a standard , our bench mark is based on fear, misconception, and rationality, so it up to ones brain to understand what is nonsense.
      . Contributions from the gay community are so vast and are such an ingrained part of our culture that I assert if fecal matter Santorum or any hater acknowledged this fact, he or she would not be able to continue with the crusade against them.
      The republican field is the best it could ever be if failure is what you are hoping for. Obama dissapointed me in numerous ways over the past three years (emery petition for one) but that is more my fault for believing in him, I still hope he wins

      You may not have heard of the "Conservative Party of Canada", but they're not only "up here" but they've got a disastrous majority (disastrous if you care about what Canada has stood for for the past few decades).

      And, since their base of power is your home province, maybe you could, ya know, do *something* about it?

      Not sure what, mind you, but I wouldn't cry if our Dear Leader or a member of his Gang of N were on the end of something ... very ... "messy".
