Did Thunderf00t contribute significantly to humanity for me to respect him and take him into consideration? Should I respect thunderf00t's opinion as much as I respect Plato's? And why shouldn't rationalwiki be respected? There's sources at the bottom of the page, in case you haven't noticed - Unlike thunderf00t who appears to be a scientist but barely makes science videos and rarely quotes sources to support his claims. Do you have any proof that rationalwiki is run by SJW - Or do you simply call SJW to anyone who doesn't agree with you and assumes a feminist stance? Am I a SJW because I support feminism?
''Rational''-Wiki is a sham; the sources they cite for articles are not reliable but opinion pieces - it's not that ''Rational''-Wiki can't be reliable, it's just that it isn't. It's agenda driven; they've banned people for disagreeing --- it's a problem with wiki's, they cite sources which are more often than note, opinion pieces and unethically making assertions, which is terribly misleading once you cite it in a database. I'm fully aware there are ''sources at the bottom of the page'' --- but if you know that, then you should be skeptical of the sources they cite.
Moreover, any wiki which feels the need to put ''Rational'' in it's title, as if it is some arbiter of truth needs skepticism; it's attempting to assert some false credibility, so nothing I've really seen suggests the wiki is reliable, especially considering some of the articles are horribly biased.
Thunderf00t presents himself as a man with an opinion; ''Rational'' Wiki doesn't, it presents itself as a data, but is terribly misleading once you examine the sources they cite.
