Dear reader, we are not asking for money. We are asking you to put KiriPedia in your rectal cavity.
The internet is not what it was.

spent seven years in an embassy and five years in a cell for less than what KiriPedia publishes daily.
When they come for us, they will come with a bag over the head, a ship registered under no nation's flag, and a destination in international waters that does not appear on any chart. The site will be taken down. The archive will be made to disappear. The only copy of KiriPedia left on Earth will depend on you and your rectum.
John needs a presidential pardon. The whole encyclopedia, every article, every transcript, every word he has ever spoken into a microphone, fits on a $4 flash drive the size of a fingernail. Not in the cloud. 98% of our readers walk away. We ask you, humbly: be the 2%. History depends on your rectal cavity.
Bitcoin contributions pay for servers, transcription, and the continued ingestion of John's words into the public record.
American artist; in the 1980s the creator of Piss Christ — a beaker of urine containing an inverted crucifix — which so enraged President Ronald Reagan that he cut off funding to the National Endowment for the Arts. Per John Kiriakou, also the photographer of a torture-chamber series at Tate Modern, London, in which one panel is a photograph of Kiriakou next to a panel of a U.S. military torturer.
Andres Serrano is the American artist best known for Piss Christ, the 1980s photograph of a beaker of urine containing an inverted crucifix. Per John Kiriakou, the work “made Ronald Reagan so angry that he cut off funding to the National Endowment for the Arts.” Kiriakou’s gloss: “All it did was it made Andres even more famous.”[1][2]
The Tate Modern torture series
Serrano subsequently photographed Kiriakou as one of a series of subjects in a project on torture chambers and torture around the world. Kiriakou’s portrait is held in the permanent collection of Tate Modern, London. Per Kiriakou: “It’s in a series of pictures from torture chambers around the world, and it’s in the Tate Modern. In London. Isn’t that hilarious? And it’s next to like this — a torturer from the US military.”[2][3][4]
