You can notice a bias towards the state media from pro-capitalist regimes from the above.

maintain a neutral pow

Neutral POV as per themselves? Or is it some external agency? Agency made up of all sides?

And do you see this as neutral?

    ? If it was pro-capitalist China would be green, the divide is USA and their colonies vs perceived potential threats to it's domination.

    China is led by a Communist party that aims to progress in the path of Socialism.

    Compared to the West, not pro-Capitalist enough for Wikipedia then?

    By their own words and practice, and any measurable metric, they are not.

    https://english.www.gov.cn/news/202412/06/content_WS6752b0e2c6d0868f4e8edbb0.html

    Chinese government press release: 60% of GDP is from fully private companies. About 20% is from mixed ownership companies.

    80% of workers work for private enterprises.

    (USA states are 80% GDP from private companies, 20% from SOE, could not find a metric that distinguishes partially state owned enterprise in USA; and that about 80% of population also work for private enterprises)

    Worker rights are stagnated far behind EU, for safety of workplace (e.g. China official statistics are twice the Eu per capita https://english.news.cn/20260115/89ba80c83c4a4cf6a0162fa4f43e6b68/c.html) , renumeration, paid holidays, paid sick leave.

    The only positive was slightly lower retirement age, but that is gone now: http://english.scio.gov.cn/m/chinavoices/2025-01/02/content_117641102.html

    Heck, even ProleWiki says that Socialism in China is a dream for the future, and that they are aiming for the poetic 100th birthday of PRC. I will believe that when I see it, because for now it's just a capitalist country.

    It is vastly better if you compare China to USA, but let's not lie to ourselves.

    Why are you gish galloping at Xinhua news?

    The backbone of the economy is

    Literally Chinese government official press release does not agree with that, linked above.

    I fucking believe Chinese official government press release over random reddit posts when it comes to sourcing knowledge about China.

    Vastly better than USAmerica

    Is that the reason for Wikipedia's bias against their media?

    Europe tags along with USAmerican regime's capitalist-imperialist actions and so their media is given an exemption?

    Heck, even ProleWiki says that Socialism in China is a dream for the future, and that they are aiming for the poetic 100th birthday of PRC. I will believe that when I see it, because for now it's just a capitalist country.

    Even if they are currently capitalist, they do not see it as the end stage, like the pro-capitalist regimes do?

    So, let's not lie to ourselves, to deny the obvious preference that the Wikipedia page shows for the media from the pro-capitalist regimes.

    This is the moderating repository of knowledge in the western media ecosystem all but admitting that they do not actually consider China a capitalist state.
