Facts seem to line up with Ben's re-telling of events, a bunch of former Grayzone/Moderate Rebel accounts did start promoting multipolarista after Ben left GZ and then stopped producing content. I'll wait to hear what Ben has to say, but it seems pretty clear cut that Max is in the right legally unless something major changes, so it's gonna be hard to defend Ben outside of "lmao get owned Max we stole your shit"

Ben has already replied (not that he should have, this is an employer-employee dispute). He was the only one who had access to the moderate rebels socials and they had done a mediation before. It's very convenient that Blumenthal is attacking him on something that has already been settled and happened a few years ago right after Ben moved to China.
