What's with the "for those who care about capitalist values" tagline? Firstly Anarchopedia is anticapitalist -- anarchism is anticapitalist by definition -- and I didn't find such a motto anywhere on the site. Is this an intricate troll?

"for those who care about capitalist values"?[edit]

What's with the "for those who care about capitalist values" tagline? Firstly Anarchopedia is anticapitalist -- anarchism is anticapitalist by definition -- and I didn't find such a motto anywhere on the site. Is this an intricate troll? Please fix :-) --Drummyfish (talk) 17:47, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to WikiIndex. If you scroll down to the footer of http://eng.anarchopedia.org/Main_Page - and indeed every page, you will see the file placeholder (sadly a 'red link' at the moment) alongside the MediaWiki 'powered by' mini-banner. It clearly states "the terms "For those who care about capitalist values"". I think the actual file on Anarchopedia was lost during a server crash in late 2015. This archive of the English main page from September 2015 clearly shows the picture bottom left. I trust you are satisfied with my explanation.
