Reminder for everyone that when it comes to information systems, drives toward "neutrality" and "removing bias" are, in fact, social agendas that function by concealing biases and replicating existing assumptions about who is served, and who is not served (or is harmed) by that information or system

There is no such thing as neutral or unbiased information or data. All data exists as an observation of some phenemonon from a particular point of view, and operatianlized to a particular end. All information and organization of info serves some person or community, toward some end, but not others.

How would you identify what an "ideological bias" is, if not but from the vantage point of another ideology? All epistemic paradigms are necessarily ideological because they exist as social constructions derived from historical practices carried out by people in communities w/ relationships to power
