I agree. I'd rather not explicitly state which side of the political spectrum I've noticed being a problem, but I've certainly seen a particular tendency to see articles that they politically oppose be much less neutral, and the references allowed in the first place very skewed towards one side. I wonder to what extent it is that perhaps Wikipedia draws editors of a certain leaning (much as some professions seem to - on both sides). Whatever, it's incredibly frustrating when you see the framing and feel the umpires are also often in the same bubble as the editor pushing their position on the article.

> I'd rather not explicitly state which side of the political spectrum I've noticed being a problem Why do you hesitate to say that the left are causing a problem?

  Because if you do that too many times, you get called an “inherent flame war” and shadowbanned. See me.

  Same reason your comment appears in grey - they'd rather not be censored.

It's the same political side that has been working with the MSM, Twitter, Facebook etc. to silence opposing views and "fact check" stories they don't agree with.
