Can you clarify the people you’re asking about? “Rationalism” is a term that applies both to Enlightenment-era philosophers in the 18th century and to a specific intellectual community today (which is related to the 18th-century groups and claims their legacy, but is distinct from them). Both groups have their own philosophical responses – are we talking about e.g. /r/sneerclub or Emmanuel Kant?
