You can notice a bias towards the state media from pro-capitalist regimes from the above.

    “You know you can do this thing yourself right?”

    Person does thing

    “No you are using biased language and have to use exclusively sources which are known to repeat CIA imperialist propaganda like the Hamas rape hoax on demand.”

      Yeah articles that show capitalist and imperialists in a bad light don’t exist.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Lai_massacre

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trail_of_Tears

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrocities_in_the_Congo_Free_State

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gwangju_Uprising

      The sources referenced there should be a great start for writing the suggested article. Have at it.

          The suggestion was that OP could simply make an article and reference works that make a strong case for that claim.

          It doesn’t appear to be difficult especially in relation to colonialism.

          Now if Wikipedia rejected a well researched, fairly written and referenced article, this would be a different discussion.

            No it wouldn’t, it would be exactly the same because you would ignore that Wikipedia deleted it. And we know this because that is exactly what happened

            the claim is that wikipedia is biased against communism and dedicates a 1/4 of its existence to clearly displaying it:

            communism

            none of yours do
