Doesn't imply that positions popularly held by self-proclaimed liberals are closer to any objective truth. Reality is what we make of it through our biased consciousness, colored by our value system and sense of morality.
Once for curiosity I tried to read about BLM movement. I wasn't sure if I was reading a historic document of the movement or a BLM demonstration cheerleader.
Interesting article. I agree that we should be able to expect that Wikipedia is a neutral source.

Do academics in the USA therefore have to expect repression if they publish such articles? Or are there other good reasons why clear names are not used?
I think a better wikipedia can be built along the github model. Allow each entry to be forked and reforked, but with wikipedia serving as an index rather than a content repository. Use something like github stars for sorting purposes.
This would replace neutrality with plurality, the merely aspirational with the achievable.
