What If the Fantasy-Based Reality of Conservatives Was a Real Place?
In response to alleged biases at the user-edited Wikipedia, conservatives built their own called Conservapedia. (The culture of conservative victimhood continues.)
The fantasy-based reality constructed by conservatives has a new home on the web, in addition to right-wing blogs.
The main page explains:
Conservapedia is a much-needed alternative to Wikipedia, which is increasingly anti-Christian and anti-American. On Wikipedia, many of the dates are provided in the anti-Christian “C.E.†instead of “A.D.â€, which Conservapedia uses. Christianity receives no credit for the great advances and discoveries it inspired, such as those of the Renaissance. Read a list of many Examples of Bias in Wikipedia.
Conservapedia is an online resource and meeting place where we favor Christianity and America. Conservapedia has easy-to-use indexes to facilitate review of topics. You will much prefer using Conservapedia compared to Wikipedia if you want concise answers free of “political correctnessâ€.
The tagline? “A conservative encyclopedia you can trust.â€
Nevermind that reference texts, like the encyclopedia, are meant to stick to facts only and be free from biases. Creating an educational resource that “favors†anything by design seizes to be a reference tool altogether.
In a way, it is a lot like the Chappelle’s Show skit where host Dave Chappelle explores what the internet would be like if it was a real place.
