A lot of ex-communist east european countries history is biased as fuck. But I agree with you, I don't think Musk buying Wikipedia would benefit it in any way. Although how much of "crowd" bias is there now is arguable as a lot of them are probably a part of some NGO or something...

Do you have a source to back this up?

And can you send this source to Wikipedia so they can update their pages since they strive for NPOS?

They are clearly not as biassed as you claim they are.

Not just NGOs, many groups are also involved in information warefare. This is a result of Wikipedia's poor policies that favor profits more than its purpose.
