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 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.
Well he’s a GOAT but bro was playing both sides at times so it’s understandable

I’ve defended him over it before but dude should have known better to trust literal imperialists with anything like that, being busy dying of tuberculosis or not.
You should see what they have to say about relativity - it’s absolutely insane.
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?

comedy gold
I feel like labels like “liberal”, “conservative”, “socialist”, “right wing”, “centrist”, and “left wing” are largely meaningless, as used in the US today.
I hope we can use the left/right terminology less at some point in my lifetime.
I hate how the regressive side is called the “right”.
Only when said by an idiot. Do you let how idiots use words define your thoughts?
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.
Satan H Christ, I don’t know Connies could read
Conservapedia is such a fucking hilarious website. Absolute comedic goldmine written without a whisper of irony.
The Onion should buy it and change nothing.
They should buy it, add the tagline “A place for all Conservative Facts” then make every page blank.
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 <whatever article> is still up!”
Famous Liberal: ADOLF HITLER
He had SOCIALIST in his name! /s
The guy half of all conservatives worship in secret.
But but, he created the National SoCiALiSt Party so clearly he was a RAGING LEFTIST EXTREMIST!!!
Liberals are barely leftist, come on
Something something sarcasm.
This is text, I’m autistic and I can choose how to continue a bit.
And the other half worship openly.
Infamous liberal Mao Zedong…
Dawkins went full Chritofascist, promoted great replacement, and they still don’t like him
Ah yes, the infamous hyper liberal woke, Mao Zedong
I would much prefer this clown show to them ruining the real Wikipedia
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 remember that! The trusworthy encyclopedia! Utter comedy gold. I wish I could get that kind of a laugh. :)
Trussworthy indeed.
