in good faith, who is in good standing in other respects, and on the global stage takes another view, that tends to affect how it's reported.

That doesn't mean that they are fact-stating, right?

When you're talking about geopolitics in general, it's kind of important to remain neutral in any sort of way.

reference work, I think.

Right, right.

Of course they always deny it.

Well, you wouldn't learn that from a neutral encyclopedia, though, right?

Because that would be a very, very opinionated sort of thing, wouldn't it?

Yes.

You would go to the article about the various alleged genocides, and maybe none of the articles would be called genocides if they were still controversial, right?

Nevertheless, one of the very first things that you would learn, as is the case in an article about the so-called Gaza genocide, is that...

Yeah, like a lot of people on the world stage think that it is actually a genocide.

It's really important to know these days, actually.

A notion of neutrality is that the resource doesn't make up your mind for you.

That's the whole point.

Yeah.

Then what we're talking about is something called methodology, even just study method or epistemology to a certain extent.
