  • The Grayzone raises over $90,000 for 3 independent journalists.

  • Gofundme freezes the funds.

  • British Counter-Terror Police detains journalist Kit Klarenberg and interrogates him for 5 hours about his political views and reporting.

The West sure loves its press freedomβ„’ huh?

Edit: Thanks for the valuable discussion, I didn't plan to donate anything cuz I also have my reservations towards the Grayzone. But you guys really showed me that I should probably do it anyway πŸ˜…

Here is the link if you want to donate too.

Gz

They're pushing some crazy conspiracy theories.

I hope they crash and burn... Far left! Pah, these people are nothing but far from sane.

EDIT: Lol at all the russian disinformants in the replies. Wikipedia literally references tens of articles that were conspiracy theories. "without evidence" only works if you're blind. Also weird that the website only lists anti-ukrainian articles....

Don't quite get how supporting Russia would ever be considered left wing.

Russia is strongly associated with communism in many people's minds. Including many Russians'.

That's pretty ridiculous.

I don't see how the things reported on that page could be considered "left"
