Leftypedia, the socialist encyclopedia

We are a community aspiring to create an online encyclopaedia dedicated to providing a coherent platform about leftist politics.

We want to demystify what we believe to be one of the most misunderstood ideologies, either for people who believe left-wing theoretical texts are too dense to read or those who have strong opinions about it without having read anything by prominent leftist thinkers.

In short, our aim is to let the left-wing movement do the talking, and for us to expound upon it.

We are Leftypedia, a socialist and left-wing online encyclopedia.

If you're a leftist of any kind or considering becoming one, you've probably found truthful information about socialist ideologies and movements from websites like Wikipedia lacking at best.

These days, genuine leftist ideology can be hard to get into and learn about, between the toxic culture that dominates online leftist spaces and the many issues faced by even offline socialist organizations. Reading theory-dense works from Marx can be hard at first, and the easily-accessible guides targeted at beginners often don't even understand the work their talking about themselves!

So, what's the solution?

A dedicated socialist resource, like Leftypedia.

We aspire for new leftists to be given an environment where original discourse is encouraged on top of sourced and informative encyclopedic articles

Since are beginning in 2019, we have hundreds of articles, dozens of editors, and a growing community and base of content.

We're well on our way of reaching our goals, and welcome any leftist or incoming-leftist to view and editor our articles, carry out original discourse, and so on!
