>he was advocating for removing the blacklist.

Seems like a distinction without a difference to me. If he got his way the website would quickly be overrun with right wing misinformation campaigns. I hope he stays banned.

For many topics Wikipedia is well known to be overrun with left wing campaigns - LGBT, and US political topics chief among them.

I'd rather see neither side successfully oust the other. But it seems that the left got there first and is entrenched.

For many topics right wing ideas are just factually incorrect. This isn't Wikipedia's fault.

Going to have to disagree with the established science bit, and the left has a long history in western culture. You just don't like it lol

How is "LGBT" left wing??

Furthermore, I'm not in the US, but "US politics" doesn't seem to have much left wing about it either.

Unfortunately from a US perspective being a sexual minority/trans is left wing by default because our right wingers hate them.
