Ye gods. "Propaganda ministry"? I was giving you due respect and reading you carefully until you spouted this nonsense.

Who knows how many other Wikipedia articles are being treated in such a way, and only if people come forward will we get a good idea.

This is (when stripped down) basically a "straw man" post. It uses quotes by others saying "A"as a rhetoric device in a question where the issue isn't "A" at all, and in effect, conflates the two to try and make its point. It then presents its point as made when in fact it hasn't made it at all, nor even contains any attempt to do so. It's either sloppy logic or a rhetoric device. Either way it has no place in honest communication, except as a mistake to be retracted when spotted.
