Logo of InfraWiki, a combination of the Wikipedia and Infrared logos

InfraWiki is a right-wing revisionist and deviationist wiki founded by supporters of Infrared in October 2022 in response to ProleWiki's taking up a stance against Caleb Maupin, Jackson Hinkle, the Infrared community, and the patriotic socialist movement in the United States.[1][2] Although it defends Stalin[3] and China[4] from capitalist propaganda, it also claims Donald Trump is in favor of the working class and ignores his far-right policies.[5] InfraWiki has established accounts on the right-wing social media platforms TruthSocial and Parler.[6]

Political positions

InfraWiki contains sexist and anti-LGBT statements and believes the LGBT community is counterrevolutionary.[7] It calls ProleWiki "woke" and "historical nihilists."[8]

Sourcing

InfraWiki uses unreliable sources that wouldn't be taken seriously in any academic setting, including Telegram posts,[9] Quora posts,[9] Twitter posts,[10] and YouTube videos.[11][12] In addition, it recommends that its editors visit Conservapedia (which is itself infamous for its unreliability) and KeyWiki (an anti-communist doxxing site) in order to find sources to back up their claims.[13]

    The PRC was founded in 1949 by Mao Zedong, then head of the CPC, after the over two-decades long Chinese Civil War that had been waging since 1927. Since then, it has been one of the most successful socialist expeirments in the world as it continues to thrive economically to this day.

    The PRC has often been accused of genocide against the Uyghur Muslim ethnic group in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region in the northwest. This is largely a conspiracy theory, as life in Xinjiang has been proven to be prosperous and peaceful.

    Many in the west have accused China of debt-trapping Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) members in Africa. This has been disproven, as China has forgiven billions [of dollars'] worth of debt to 17 different countries.
