Look at the edit history. It's mostly no account anons and it's obviously a pure hit piece with no merit. I don't know if anyone here bothers with RW at all at this point, but this is clearly someone just using them as a platform to attack someone rather than official RW shit.
I doubt even @Null would object to the existence of even an extremely negative RW article. But I doubt even RW would want to be used so blatantly.
It's just bad and embarrassing. They should be embarrassed to be hosting it.
Is RW really so dead thanks to David Gerard's policies that there aren't any longer even any rabid deletionists watching the changelog for shit to delete as obvious shit?

That collective of yesterday's has-beens ripping on TL;DR is pretty special. The fucking guy cites every single point he makes. But no, oh no, don't critique that when you can lazily use the SocJus version of calling someone a faggot.
That entire page is wannabe ED, yet somehow even lazier.
Although describing itself as a "facts-oriented encyclopedia of eccentricity", critics point out Lolcow Wiki is a smear-wiki that spreads misinformation, libel and rumours.

The sources they link to reference Null, which itself is doxing, and of course their clergy PZ Myers and Rebecca Watson are openly pro-doxing and workplace harassment — something the RWians however have sensed might look bad, hence as usual, have carefully removed such facts.
In that way, they manufactured themselves a reality where their team is universially good, and the other team is universially bad (they also think in Us vs Them to begin with). As always with such people, you'll agree It's Okay When They Do It.
The RationalWiki is best described with a reference to the DSM.
Not sure how much this guy has been discussed, or if he merits a lolcow thread or not, but Hipocrite seems to be the main butt-monkey of the website right now. Doesn't contribute any content, just shows up every now and then to harass folks who actually contribute if he suspects them of "wrongthought".
Apparently this guy has quite a record too. ED has an article on him. Real name is Bob Djurdjevic, (aka Bob Altzar Djurdjevic)
a 70 year old fart living in Hawaii with a second home in Arizona, who was apparently a Wikipedo too who was involved in some drama.
What's weird though is this guy has quite a bit of public info on the web, and looking into him I actually suspect him of being a troll or parodist (a la Conservapedia) who's just trying to damage the website as much as possible: I'll get started here:

For starters, here's his Facebook and Twitter. The guy claims to be an entrepreur and writer, who's the founder of a company called "Annex Media".

Now here's where it gets interesting though. Up until about 2015, when Hipocrite/Bob suddenly emerged to get involved in the GamerGate drama on WP and RW, (apparently being noted as one of Ryulong's biggest butt buddies), pretty much all of his entire public record indicates he was a right-winger and fan of crank "Alex Jones" type woo that RW is dedicated to mocking.
ED even says he was a buddy of a corrupt right-wing WP admin named "MONGO", and has a photo of him with Pat Buchanen, a popular figure with the alt-right:
Bob has several personal websites; on this one he brags about being a contributer to the right-wing Washington Times newspaper (owned by Rev Moon of the "Moonie" cult); apparently one of his pieces he wrote for the Moonie Times was something along the lines of "Christianity being under seige by the New World Order" or something like that:
On another of his sites, he claims to be an "Inca-trained shaman & mesa carrier, thrice ordained by Andean mountain spirits" (WTF?) - I'm sure that qualifies as "crank/alternative/new age woo" by RW's standards:
Other than that, there are a few miscellaneous hits on him; he has a personal blog called "yinyangbob" full of new age woo (to top it off he even has the Yin and Yang symbols backwards):
Well anyway, pretty much all of this Hipocrite guy's posts outside of RationalWiki seem to indicate he's a fan of right-wing politicians, and crank tin-foil hat type stuff that RationalWiki is dedicated to mocking, then out of the blue he shows up around 2015 on RW just to side with Ryulong (who was eventually banned for disruption) over GamerGate.
So either this guy is completely crazy and had a complete 180 degree reversal in political views at the ripe age of 70, or he's a troll or parodist who went to RW just to disrupt and damage the site; I'm personally calling the latter considering how much published media he has in favor of "right-wing" politics.
