The West sure loves its press freedom™ 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 😅
Here is the link if you want to donate too.

They're pushing some crazy conspiracy theories.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Grayzone
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....
That wiki page is hilarious. The cite for the claim greyzone is misinformation is a paper that offhandedly and without evidence says that grey zone is misleading people.
Actually most of the cites are "people are saying' levels of evidence. Wikipedia is a joke.
If you wanted to claim that greyzone was " sympathetic to authoritarian régimes" or "denied genocide" then you could just link directly to the greyzone to show what they're doing, but instead they wiki authors have decided to cite articles the obliquely mention these claims. Its the equivalent of writing a ransom note with magazine clippings but with citations.
I suspect they avoid linking directly because GZ articles are usually well sourced and have nuances that don't support the wiki author's bs.

Its weird that youd lie considering their front page is full of charged wording and conspiracy level articles. Not to mention wikipedia CITES everything. "No evidence" only works if you're blind. I suppose you're one of the authors lol.
Yeah sure just go ahead link me the articles you take umbrage with and why.
Don't quite get how supporting Russia would ever be considered left wing.
Just maybe... ask people their opinions? Find out?
Would be pretty cool to think critically and find out for yourself, wouldn't it?
Not calling for the death of every Russian is "supporting Russia". Libs have consumed far too much harry potter and marvel political theory to dialogue with.
Russia is strongly associated with communism in many people's minds. Including many Russians'.
I can't believe I have to remind you liberals that THE USSR FELL IN 1991! What are you even talking about you sound insane.

They sure uncovered some crazy conspiracies; one of my all-time favorite: Western media’s favorite Hong Kong ‘freedom struggle writer’ is American ex-Amnesty staffer in yellowface
