that article is SEVERELY biased to the right.
> Or to take an up-to-the-minute issue, the LGBT adoption article includes several talking points in favor of LGBT adoption rights, but omits any arguments against.
What if we replace LGBT "rights" with Jewish Rights during the Holocaust.
It'd go something like: just because "liberals" think Jews deserve to live, and we should all have equal rights, that maybe we should also have a fair "view" or balanced "insight" into Hitler's side of the argument, so people can choose for themselves whether they want to be racist or genocidal or not. Tolerance isn't for everyone, we should be tolerant of those not tolerant of anybody who isn't white, no? SMH.
It's an encyclopedia, facts should matter, if you're peeved that liberal facts are often more true or accurate than those based on crapola like the bible or oil-industry-endorsed climate change studies, or Presidential decrees that Bleach cures Covid-19, then honestly you should probably just stick to your facebook echo chambers, and please stay away from public platforms and politics in general.
I saw a meme once about the right trolling itself where they basically said -- GUYS stop showing statistics and studies they're all against us. Yes, they are, not because they're fabricated but because the conservative worldview is extremely warped and often just insane.
I mean 86% of flat-earthers are conservative. The majority of people who believe in bigfoot, also conservative. Only 32% of conservatives believe in evolution and there's probably a HUGE percent that believe the world was created 8k years ago by God (factually impossible).
Sure, Wikipedia should strive for FACTUAL neutrality, but not when facts are from a dogmatic source like the bible, it could still show those "facts" as it were as an "opinion" by Christian Seminologists, for example, however the majority of historians and archaelogists find flaws see: <insert page> etc...
Most articles I've ever read have been pretty darn good, I haven't seen much in way of not-neutral, but then I think neutrality doesn't mean allowing bigots free reign either.
- AussieWog93 5y agoI agree with you about LGBT adoption, because most of the things people feared didn't actually happen when gay people started adopting in more liberal countries. That said, I don't think it's fair to compare that particular debate (which was genuinely an unknown phenomenon at the time, and erring on the side of LGBT parents could have caused thousands of children to suffer if liberal-minded peoples' assumptions turned out to be wrong) to a literal genocide (which, even if the Jews turned out to be part of a secret cabal who controlled the banks, undermined the German war effort during WW1 and denied promising young upstarts opportunities at art college, would still be clearly immoral).
