Leftypedia is an online collaborative encyclopedia that inspired the creation of ProleWiki. The primary difference between ProleWiki and Leftypedia is that Leftypedia seeks to be a "big tent" "catch-all leftism" encyclopedia, whereas ProleWiki aims to follow the line of scientific socialism, that of Marxism-Leninism.

Without an emphasis on scientific socialism, one can fall into the utopian trap of anti-authoritarianism, and being tricked into supporting imperialist propaganda against "Actually Existing Socialist" states.

Leftypedia is valuable resource that we at ProleWiki welcome everyone to read, although with a crtical eye. You should probably have a critical eye when reading what we write too.
