I noticed they pro-Putin articles and removed any mention of current events. I don't get it.

You are asking why they are not pro-Putin?

I'm asking why they erase any mention of the war.

Probably because they're a site about tropes in, primarily, fictional work, and are not - and don't intend to be - a useful source of any kind for facts or in-depth information on current events. It's actually a really good, appropriate policy for a site like theirs in terms of actual site content (a notice of support for Ukraine, seperate from the regular content, on the other hand, would be suitable - but keeping that kind of thing out of the actual site content, in the vein of their "no real life examples" policy for certain tropes, is a good idea in their case).
