the US equivalent of The Canary!
― calzino, Thursday, 16 August 2018 19:40 (seven years ago)
The Canary has also been criticised by some political pundits on the left, such as Owen Jones, who told PR Week that the website "really promotes conspiracy theories and a lot of things that just aren't right. I worry about the Canary-isation of the left, where it ends up in a bizarre sub-culture that anyone who doesn't agree is seen as part of a conspiracy. But then you do get those blogs on left and right."
haha omg it really is

if you posted that to the OD group they'd ask if Owen Jones was russian
