Dictionary definition of contra: "against; in opposition or contrast to"
So "Contra Wirecutter on the IKEA air purifier" means that it is an essay in opposition to the opinion of the Wirecutter.com website regarding the IKEA air purifier.
Oooo thank you so much! I can't believe I've never come across this word, and I love words! I thought it was a video came and that's it. I guess it's the short version of contradict?
I also think in the context of having Wirecutter, a website I've never heard of afterwards, also added to the confusion. Thanks so much!
