Conservapedia is such a fucking hilarious website. Absolute comedic goldmine written without a whisper of irony.

    Oh, there's some irony woven in there. There was a discussion by the Conservapedia mods that got re-posted to Something Awful where the mods were debating "How to we tell trolls parodying Conservative talking points from the standard Conservative crazies that are editing Conservapedia in good faith?" IIRC nobody had a good answer.

    Whenever Conservapedia comes up there's almost always someone who says something along the lines of "I just checked and my stupid edit of is still up!"

    It is funny that they don’t realize they’re technically liberals too

  • I greatly hate how liberal has become a term to mean left when it's a separate ideology in itself. A liberal and from there neo-libearl is not left. I feel it's been a large scale action to obsfucate the term to make it harder to discuss actual left policies.

    I love Conservapedia. I highly recommend checking out the pages on "greatest conservative movies" and "worst liberal movies".
    You might have to use the web archive though, because the actual site is down like 75% of the time.

    Claiming Ace Ventura and Billy Madison as one of the greatest conservative movies is certainly a choice.

    Also claiming George Orwell, unironically.

    Everyone claims Orwell for their own side for whatever reason.

    On Wikipedia, a page titled "infamous liberals" would have a definition and link to the "liberal" page. This page doesn't, which immediately gives the impression that the definition is "people I don't like". But I looked it up: https://www.conservapedia.com/Liberal

    A liberal (alternately called a left-winger or leftist) in America is someone who advocates an increase in government spending, power, and control, typically through taxpayer-funded programs such as Welfare, failed public schools, ObamaCare and support for wasteful foreign aid. Liberals often support the censorship and the denial of Christian values[1] and conservative viewpoints.

    Trump has proposed a $1.5 trillion military budget, so just government spending obviously doesn't make someone a liberal. "Liberals often support" is something they claim liberals do, seemingly not something that makes a person a liberal.

    So the claim seems to boil down to government control over the population being what makes someone a liberal. But surely the most government control-freaky in the US are the people behind ICE? And which party is it that wants to micro-manage control over women's bodies? Which party has elements which want to forbid interracial marriage? Which party is it that want to forbid no-fault diverse? Which party is it that loves the war on drugs, largely even marihuana?

    I also like how liberals support "failed public schools" and "wasteful foreign aid". So if I support non-failed public schools and non-wasteful foreign aid, then I am not a liberal?

    I feel like labels like "liberal", "conservative", "socialist", "right wing", "centrist", and "left wing" are largely meaningless, as used in the US today.

    It doesn’t actually make sense as an ideology or even a coherent set of values. It’s a cargo cult of ideology, faking the shape of a coherent ideology. Instead of starting with a set of values and ideals, then building a set of beliefs of how things should be, they’re picking and choosing values and ideals when it is convenient for justifying what they already want to do.

    Conservative pundit Bill Maher made their naughty lib list!? Geesh, even if you carry their water they will still stab you in the back. What a movement.

    The fact that Bill Maher is on there with Joseph Stalin just goes to show that TV is what the world is for some people. Even though one person's actions lead to the deaths of millions of real people and another said a joke that made you angry, it seems like the same thing because it's all make believe. Ultimately these things are apolitical. Its people interacting with characters in a narrative--there is no real interaction with any real politics.

    I heard that most of the content on there is generated by children at some Christian family-values school who get press-ganged into it as part of their "education". If that's true, it wouldn't surprise me in the least.
