In Brief: Wikipedia’s Dirty Little Secret
Far from its claims of being “impartial,” the website is overrun with deep leftist bias.


PRINT

LISTEN
Wikipedia’s leftist bias is nothing new to Patriot Post readers. Nor is it even news to the site’s founder, who last year lamented that leftists control the platform. Paula Bolyard takes up that torch with new evidence:

When Wikipedia was founded, it was based on open-source principles (though it was never technically an open-source project). Basically, anyone who had access to the internet could go in and add to or edit articles. The idea was to crowdsource the vast knowledge in the universe to come up with accurate articles that could be used by anyone anywhere, free of charge. It was a great idea in theory, but it hasn’t panned out that way. In recent years it has devolved into left-wing tyranny by moderators who have an agenda, many of whom apparently have an ax to grind.

“Wikipedia claims its articles are written from a neutral point of view,” she notes. It says it strives for an “impartial tone” and “avoid[s] advocacy.” Yet advocacy and partiality litter its pages and prevent many things from being said at all. As Bolyard puts it, “Under these guidelines, any article can be manipulated or spun to say anything and everything, or nothing at all.”

It's not leftists - it's establishment.

Their policy, now, is that the only legitimate sources are from "news" sites - reliable sources, for everything. Try to post the full video of the George Floyd bodycam arrest.

People just think it's "leftist dominated" because it's "the left" that runs the government currently, and Trump wasn't really a Republican - he was a classic NYC democrat. When we end up with Mitt Romney or similar as "president" - anything they do in regards to lying us into a war or whatever, will be "true".

It's leftists. The Status Quo is a Corporate Socialist-Woke alliance of heavily subsidized companies, if they aren't outright fronts for agencies and oligarchs, and Woke Academics and Radicals.

RINOs are just grifters who pretend to go against the system to soak up some of the antagonism towards it, but that scam is pretty much played out.

Orthodox Liberals and Economic Democratic Socialists are a tiny minority now, most have sold out.

Emails Show Hunter Biden Hired Specialists to Quietly Airbrush Wikipedia

Hunter Biden, like many powerful individuals and corporations, hired special consultants to edit Wikipedia without any fingerprints.

Powerful individuals and corporations routinely tap specialized consultants to edit Wikipedia for more favorable entries, often through anonymous accounts designed to appear organic.

Emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop show that he made continuous efforts to airbrush his image and the Wikipedia articles associated with his Ukrainian benefactors.

The outreach by high-priced consultants making stealth edits to Wikipedia, for a period, paid off.

In 2014, working at the time with FTI Consulting, a major public relations and lobbying firm, Hunter sought changes to his personal Wikipedia entry.

“Ryan- below is a start. Eric is my partner and cc'd- he's going to make additional edits,” wrote Hunter to FTI’s Ryan Toohey in May 2014, referring him to Eric Schwerin, the president of Hunter’s firm Rosemont Seneca. Hunter forwarded along edits seeking the deletion of unflattering lines in his Wikipedia biography, such as his ties to disgraced Ponzi scheme financier Allen Stanford. ...

Wikipedia maintains a semi-transparent system to show the edit history of any article on the website. The history shows that shortly after Hunter’s request, several anonymous Wikipedia accounts began a series of edits to his page, adding changes requested by Hunter and deleting embarrassing lines.

Takes somebody in some level of power to get you to see it, followed by a lot of obvious corruption and bullshit. Pity it couldn't take less. We may have been able to fix this 20 years ago.

Wikipedia is the most biased encyclopedia in history, having been hijacked by U.S. intelligence, industry and the political establishment years ago
According to Wikipedia cofounder Larry Sanger, U.S. intelligence has been manipulating the online encyclopedia since at least 2008, if not longer
Sanger noticed a bias creeping in around 2006, particularly in areas of science and medicine. Around 2010, he noticed that articles about Eastern Medicine were being changed to reflect blatantly biased positions, using “dismissive epithets” to paint this ancient tradition as quackery
Over-the-top kind of establishment bias includes Wikipedia’s assertion that the Ukraine-Biden scandal is a conspiracy theory designed to undermine Biden, even though evidence of Biden’s corruption has been made public
One explanation for why ideological bias has taken over Wikipedia is that it’s intentionally being used as a propaganda tool by intelligence agencies and the globalist establishment that is seeking to establish a One World Government. To succeed, they can’t allow a multitude of dissenting viewpoints to proliferate, and intelligence agencies are working together to disseminate and uphold the Deep State’s narratives worldwide

Wikipedia still has some use if you go to the talk section. In that section you can see justifications for omissions and also why certain "reliable sources" which are known to be propaganda are included.

All Encyclopedias are propaganda anyhow and always have been. It's just that Wikipedia sucks a lot more now than it used to. That's the only reason people complain.

Lol, a fun alternative to a lot of the propaganda on Wikipedia:

The attack on 9/11 was a carefully planned shadow government black operation, with a corresponding cover-up of the mountains of evidence that only point to government control and involvement throughout the attack.

Held November 3rd 2020, the 2020 Election was the most corrupt in American history. Incumbent President Donald Trump was re-elected with approximately 53% of the popular vote (having beat the already rigged algorithms) before the infusion of more than 11 million manufactured illegal mail-in ballots by corrupt election officials across the nation, particularly impacting key swing states, stemming from six corrupt Democrat cities and counties and throwing the final results into an extended...

ActBlue A leftwing dark money online fundraising operation that began with an editorial by the communist mouthpiece New York Times and was immediately echoed by Hillary Clinton's press spokesman. It allows far left groups and Democratic politicians to fundraise without setting up an online donation infrastructure themselves. Money passes through ActBlue to the ultimate recipient and ActBlue collects a fee as payment. This has the added effect of obscuring the ultimate recipient, since money...

Take a look at most Australian City/Place articles. Almost all mention the "Aboriginal" name, a reminder that a low population of pre-agricultural hunter-gatherer stone age schmucks wandered through the area at times:







Geraldton is funny, as the Aboriginal name is clearly derivative of "Geraldton". Birri being "Place". So "Jerry's Place" which is obviously from "Geraldton"

Note the language: "Resistance to" "original inhabitants" etc.

Anytime I see someone quote Wikipedia as their source I know I am dealing with someone who is either lazy or stupid. Often both.

Probably already posted, but back in 2014-2015, there was a study showing a pronounced leftwing bias in Wikipedia vs. Britannica.

Wikipedia's co-founder asks Elon Musk and DOGE to investigate whether the encyclopedic website is receiving federal money

Well, this is an interesting development, to say the least.

Larry Sanger, a co-founder of Wikipedia, thinks that there is something rotten happening at the website he founded.

But ... why would the Total State want to use the most popular research website on earth to push a particular narrative?

Here's Larry Sanger, who is now no longer involved with Wikipedia, begging Elon Musk to investigate any influence coming into Wikipedia.

https://x.com/lsanger/status/1894825221640867978

Hi
@ElonMusk
. Wikipedia co-founder here. May I ask you to determine what branches of the U.S. government—if any!—have employees paid to edit, monitor, update, lobby, etc., WIkipedia?

Such operations should be defunded, if any. If there are none, we’d like to know. Agree?

Wikipedia had a category for Trans serial killers, but deleted it:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2019_July_7#Category:Transgender_serial_killers

Propose deleting Category:Transgender serial killers (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: There are only two entries, which could be handled by simply ==See also== linking them, and the category also seems unusual as there is not e.g. a Category:African-American serial killers or Category:Hindu serial killers: it seems serial killers are otherwise only categorized by nationality and by whether they are male or female, which both entries in this category already are.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transgender&oldid=290812

Note sexual identity disorder was completely removed since this 2001 era screenshot and it was categorized along with "fetish"

It was replaced with sexual identity and all kinds of expert claims about trannies and BDSM not being sexual DISorders.

Yesterday, the Hill ran a wonderfully encouraging story headlined, “Musk says xAI building ‘Grokipedia’ after criticizing Wikipedia.” Wikipedia, which tragically had originally showed so much promise, has long been hollowed out by leftists. For example, Wikipedia’s first paragraph about Charlie Kirk’s political positions cites the Southern Poverty Law Center calling Charlie’s “rhetoric divisive, racist, xenophobic, and extreme.” A reckoning is long overdue.

“We are building Grokipedia @xAI,” Musk said on X Tuesday. “Will be a massive improvement over Wikipedia. Frankly, it is a necessary step towards the xAI goal of understanding the Universe.”

Wikipedia is often described as “the largest written collection of knowledge in human history.” Hopefully not for much longer.

There wasn’t much in the way of tangible news, and so the story falls squarely into the “somebody said something” category. But still. Musk, after all, is the world’s richest man and, whatever else you might think about the space billionaire, has done more to protect free speech than anyone alive. He literally paid $48 billion to buy X and save it —and the rest of us— from censorship, even though every major advertiser bailed the next day.

Musk has recently heaped well-deserved criticism on the free online encyclopedia and called it “hopelessly biased.” One of its two founders, Larry Sanger, 57, now calls the platform “completely corrupted.” Daily Mail headline, yesterday:

Wikipedia co-founder says online
encyclopedia has been completely
corrupted by woke ideology
By KELLY GARINO, US REPORTER

As one recent example from the Mail’s article, Wikipedia’s elite editors first attempted to delete the entry on Iryna Zarutska’s brutal murder on the grounds it was insufficiently newsworthy. After backlash forced them to restore the entry, they edited out the killer’s name and all references to his race and the racial motivation for Iryna’s killing. They even argued about whether to call it a “murder,” as though the Ukrainian refugee might’ve been killed in a tragic railway accident or as though her cause of death remains forever mysterious, like covid jab victims.

Wikipedia is managed by a loose group of 62 administrative editors. Only one-fifth of them use their real names; the rest remain anonymous. They are super woke. Wikipedia’s co-founder Sanger coined the helpful term GASP to describe the editorial group: Globalist, Academic, Secular, and Progressive.

Not much substance is known about Musk’s proposed replacement apart from a few posts by his development team hinting that objective truth is the highest priority for knowledge, a terrifying prospect that fills progressives’ hearts with fear. Despite the lack of technical details or any launch date, the announcement flooded the tech media with straight news, and filled corporate media with hastily written op-eds decrying Musk’s search for truth as anti-democratic.

In other words, progressives feel that people should get to vote on the truth, unless the vote goes the wrong way, in which case: mandates.

Wikipedia Co-Creator Reveals All: CIA Infiltration, Banning Conservatives, & How to Fix the Internet

Larry Sanger built Wikipedia as an unbiased repository of the world’s knowledge, and then stood helplessly by as activists and intel agencies turned it into the most comprehensive propaganda op in human history. There’s nothing more corrupt.

Tuqar asked Sanger about Israel on Wikipedia (the site has been 110% pro-Arab for at least a decade) and got the opposite answer he wanted.

Tuqar stumbled and quickly moved on, not wanting to explore that issue further, lest his investors be upset.

It's wild to read Wikipedia articles from the 2000s and compare them to today, far less balanced across the board.

I once reported on how great Wikipedia was.

Now, it’s FULL of propaganda.

That’s a big problem because its bad information corrupts AI and search results:
