When I learned I'd been named in my first Bellingcat smear I was a bit thrilled, but it turned out to just be one of those articles that reports innocuous things in an ominous tone of voice. I guess "bloggers receive cash prize from US antiwar group" would've made a bad headline.
Incidentally @Bellingcat (who has me blocked) is funded by narrative management firms like the NED, a US government regime change op explicitly established during the Reagan administration to do overtly what the CIA had previously been doing covertly. iefd.org/articles/troja… 
@bellingcat I should also add that anti-imperialists need to stop treating Charles Davis like he's an actual thing. One time his account disappeared for weeks or months and literally no one noticed. He has zero impact outside a very small echo chamber of blue-ticks.
