I don't want to rock the boat too much as a newish user, but I see some giant holes in narratives presented about my countries President's. (I hail from the USA.) These are patriotic, one might say nationalist parts of the official US story presented as if they didn't have any substantial reason for NPOV. One of those things is on FDR and the Jews. A lengthy discussion is given, but it doesn't reference the biggest bombshell on that topic- which is relegated to the Adolf Eichmann article, and doesn't even have a page dedicated to it. I understand why- he was a favorite of progressives, and this is a sensitive topic given the big whoop de doo of Israel's influence on American politics, for instance. Well, don't walk on any eggshells on my account. FDR, Churchill, and Stalin all turned down an offer of 1,000,000 Jewish refugee lives for 10,000 trucks filled with tea and the like. Churchill even imprisoned a guy he thought might pursue that as a public project. Looking at his article, no mention of the million who could have lived. No mention of his role in the Iranian coup of 1953- or anything about Iran at all. The British gov't still hasn't come clean about that- the articles on the coup make that clear. The USA stopped denying it in the early 2000s, apparently. At least they mention something resembling a downplayed version of Churchill punishing the rebellious Indians by starving 3 million of them to death. He talked smack on Gandhi while the echo of his public praise for Mussolini and Fascism was still ringing in the air.

So basically, it seems most heads of state here are written with quite a bit of nationalist bias, either pushing them into the mud or cleaning it off of them. The demographic tide of that bias follows the characteristic demographics of Wikipedia editors as a population. So; mostly pro-USA and pro-UK bias, pro-German, pro-Ukraine and anti-Russian, anti-Chinese bias. And of course, a noted boy-bias. Looking at the Einstein username-related pages, it seems like permutations of the word are often associated with, well, little boys. That was me along time ago- before the internet was big. ..damn. I was going to make this a list. Oh well. Know Einstein (talk) 19:24, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
