The irony of posting a link to prolewiki which very much doesn't attempt a NPOV.
There is no such thing as a neutral point of view, if you have a brain capable of holding a point of view then you have a body that biases you towards your own survival, comfort and social connections.
The irony of not understanding that objectivity is not possible when describing events, while being subjective in your critique yourself.
Prolewiki is precisely as biased as Wikipedia, it just admits it, which is preferable since it is easier to be aware of your bias if you actually take it into account.
Neutral points of view do not exist, so it's better to honestly take a partisan stance than to do so while lying about it.
Neither does Wikipedia, at least prolewiki doesn't lie about it
You can't stay neutral on a moving train, and there's no such thing as neutrality in a world based on class struggle and class divisions.
Prolewiki is openly a pro-worker site, and wikipedia claims neutrality but in the practice is pro capitalist-imperialist. One is open and honest about its bias, the other is not.
Yes, something should be pro-labor class
That usually happens with any of the Wikipedia clones. The Wikimedia Foundation has flaws to how it works, but I've yet to see an organization try to replace Wikipedia while trying to keep any semblance of neutrality or impartiality.
Honesty = good.
True radlibs will never understand this.
