Republican Bullshit
Posted 29th December 2007 at 12:35pm by M1ke, tagged as Internet | Commenting Closed

A long while ago xkcd (which seems to be eternally relevant to everything) posted a comic about people disputing science, and how it didn't matter - unless they happen to be in a position of power. The comic was called Beliefs.

As most people know there are a large number of Americans who are, for want of a better phrase, a bunch of slack jawed rambling idiots, and they support a smaller group of power obsessed Americans known as Republicans. The Republicans are to our Conservative Party what a bear is to a squirrel, and it seems that some of them have learned to use the internet. One favourite Republican thing is to deny anything vaguely scientific in favour of old wives tales or "religion" (I quote this because I myself am religious and believe nothing of the sort). Seeing as no reputable publication would actually support their views, theories and general foam-mouthed ramblings they've decided to make their own Wikipedia, posting crap articles without a public edit option because they know that the moment a normal person arrived and decided to do some editing they would end up with Wikipedia - because Wikipedia is generally correct. Of course being the propaganda nuts that they are they've also decided to try and discredit Wikipedia at the time, with articles such as "Wikipedia Scandals" and "Liberal Bias". It beggars belief that people like this are allowed oxygen, let alone firearms and the vote.

See this bullshit for yourself!

(P.S - hopefully the amount of times I've used the words bullshit, crap and Republican in this post will mean that this travesty of a site will soon be top for "Republican Bullshit" in Google)
