      Never heard of greyzone, but what you say is not true. Sorting by “Top” shows The Guardian, Reuters, Aljazeera, etc. The coverage is spread between many sources.

        You are overlooking the links that are obfuscated through archive.org and archive.ph. The default sort algorithm for that page on lemmygrad.ml is Active. Of the 40 links on that page, 7 are for rt.com and 2 are for grayzone. So 9/40 or 22.5% of the page is well-known propaganda and conspiracy theory outlets. I’m not even clicking through the links to the lesser-known outlets that are, in all likelihood, also conspiracy theorists and authoritarian propaganda.

        If you haven’t heard of grayzone I imagine you are still new to the tankieverse, so it isn’t too late for you to leave before becoming fully indoctrinated and delusional.

          lol it’s really not hard to learn information literacy. There are plenty of communists that appreciate leftist news but are not tankies.

            RT and grayzone are both notoriously pro-authoritarian so I don’t think they qualify as left. I also don’t think a forum that has nearly 1/4 authoritarian propaganda on its front page qualifies as left.
