Wikipedia bias: Trump vs. Biden

I have written many, many times about the blatant and egregious political bias of Wikipedia (for example here). A bias that, for some inexplicable reason, nobody seems to care about, not even the loudest and most active anti-SJWs (who will make several videos a week, even several videos a day, about the tiniest of things that the far-left has done... yet do not care nor will ever comment on the heavily left-biased politics of Wikipedia, for reasons that I will never understand.)

Anyway. there are many, many good examples of this bias, but a good recent one is comparing the Wikipedia pages of Donald Trump and Joe Biden.

Rather unsurprisingly, the Donald Trump page is nothing but an extensive smearing campaign, an endless list of minutia that can be used to attack him politically. Heck, there are separate dedicated pages dedicated solely to smear him and nothing else (such as "veracity of statements by Donald Trump").

Now go to the Joe Biden Wikipedia page and try to find one, just one, negative thing written about him. There are literally zero mentions about his racially insensitive remarks (which there are plenty), no mentions about his lies and false statements (even though Trump has his own dedicated page for them), nothing. The closes thing you'll find is the section "allegations of inappropriate physical contact" which is as neutrally worded as is possible (heck, even the title of the section is as neutrally worded as possible). Contrast this with the strong allegations against Trump.

One of the most egregious things I have noticed is that, like Biden's page, in the past there used to be a "distinctions" section in Trump's page, which at some point has been removed. (I know this because prior to me getting banned from Wikipedia I made suggestions in its talk page about removing obviously biased language from that section. The page's history will probably show when the section was removed.)

That's right, Wikipedia has become so biased against Trump that they even removed his "distinctions" section from it, which once existed there. Heaven forbid anything positive is stated about Trump.

Indeed, try finding even one positive thing stated about Trump (especially one that's not sandwiched between negative traits and allegations, or immediately followed by some refutation or criticism.) Just one.

There's a separate page dedicated to Trump's presidency. Try finding even one, just one, of the positive things he achieved there, reported in a fair and unbiased manner. I couldn't find even one. Most of the positive thing he achieved were either not mentioned at all, or mentioned in a manner that twisted them into sounding negative

Now compare that to Biden's equivalent page, and try to find even one negative thing.

Yet... nobody cares. Absolutely nobody. Not even the most vocal anti-SJWs care. I will never comprehend why.
