Blue Bias at Wikipedia and Snopes

Absolutely nothing at all surprising in either of these:

Wikipedia:
Dozens of Wikipedia editors colluded on years-long anti-Israel campaign, bombshell ADL report claims
I mean, it's the ADL...but that IS one of the ways Wikipedia operates: many dedicated ideologues relentlessly editing and rules-lawyering over years to produce entries as consistent as possible with the progressive-left worldview.

Snopes:
How Snopes Buried the Truth About Ilhan Omar's Father
Aaand that's one of the ways Snopes now operates, too.

Does the left have a particular tendency to take over institutions and corrupt them, turning them to their ideological purposes?
Or if conservatives dominated these sites, would they be any more objective?

I currently think it's the former--but I'm not that sure about it.
But the two sides don't seem symmetrical to me in this respect.
It's the authoritarian/totalitarian thing again...
