The RWW user who made the report described the RWWW site owner as "morally bankrupt" and stated, "I do not believe in 'freedom of speech', when it could be used against the innocent", a reference to the perceived need to protect minors not only by forcibly preventing them from implementing their own decisions concerning use of their own bodies, but by suppressing any speech that would oppose the laws authorizing and mandating such government intervention. Some RWW users had also criticized the RWWW site owner for using a [[:Category:Wiki Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike|CC-by-SA]]-licensed image from their site without their permission, and for giving the site a name that was a derivative of RationalWikiWiki's. They complained that this was inappropriate, since the site was used for the voicing of opinions not representative of the views of RWW editors. The irony of a site whose own name was a derivative of RationalWiki, and which devoted itself to critiquing and mocking that {{tag|wiki}}, complaining about another site doing the same to it, seemed to escape them, as did the fact that the creation of an independent wiki for the purpose of ''agreeing'' with RWW would be pointless. The necessity of a fork arises when there are irreconcilable disagreements about site policy or content, and someone wants to break free of the restrictions imposed by those in control of a wiki by establishing a new wiki. | The RWW user who made the report described the RWWW site owner as "morally bankrupt" and stated, "I do not believe in 'freedom of speech', when it could be used against the innocent", a reference to the perceived need to protect minors not only by forcibly preventing them from implementing their own decisions concerning use of their own bodies, but by suppressing any speech that would oppose the laws authorizing and mandating such government intervention.
