There is a difference between unintentionally introducing a bias and propaganda . The latter is a guided by professionals. It is not an accident.

You are accusing Wikipedia of spreading propaganda? On behalf of who?

Wikipedia isn’t a person. Wikipedia isn’t doing anything.

Individuals and groups, be they ad-hoc formations, corporate backed, or nation-state backed routinely astroturf all corners of the internet and Wikipedia is a very big, very common target.

Sure but this thread is in response to a statement starting with "Wikipedia is biased".

I actually used the word biased in hopes of avoiding triggering someone like you by what I really meant. It is full of propaganda. Funded PR firm intentional propaganda and Wikipedia is complicit because they allow the propaganda they agree with and block the propaganda they do not agree with.

No I will not waste my time researching proof for someone that is being intentionally obtuse. If you have interest you can easily find it by doing some research.
