It’s just selectively chosen and distorted facts and invectives against the enemies of authoritarian leftists. It’s not a serious attempt to document reality.
As an example, I looked at the page on color revolutions the user above recommended. It’s just a series of unsupported assertions with no supporting evidence. It literally doesn’t contain a single reference.
I do find it useful for evaluating leftists though. I find when prolewiki criticizes them then it’s usually because they actually care about facts and have consistent values. So it does have some use.
Oh to be clear there’s no factual information. But who they decide to tar and feather is interesting, since tankies can’t abide facts, real history, or true convictions of any kind. All need to be sacrificed before the altar of the great leader, whichever one it is they choose to bow before. If they’re falsely calling you an anti-communist, it’s a good sign, so thanks for the validation!
I don’t have any issue with communism as it’s actually defined. A classless, moneyless, stateless society sounds nice but I’m unsure it’s possible. But I do have a problem with the charlatans who have come to be referred to as communists in popular parlance.
Similarly, I would say the rhetoric around color revolutions is actually anti-communist. Communism, among other things, is stateless, so if you are smearing and delegitimizing popular uprisings against oppressive governments, that is in reality an anti-communist mentality.

“Prolewiki is lies when it disagrees with my anticommunist bias. But it’s all truth when they agree with my anticommunist bias”

Falsely…? Wouldn’t you say you are an anti-communist? Weird.
