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.
John Kiriakou's tally of the June 2023 Greek parliamentary election, which he treats as the most disturbing case of a Europe-wide trend: eight parties won seats, six of them right-wing, four of them right-wing extremist, and two of them neo-Nazi parties taking thirteen seats between them.
The Greek neo-Nazi seats are the result John Kiriakou singled out from the June 2023 Greek parliamentary election as the sharpest instance of a continent-wide rightward shift.
The count
Kiriakou raised Greece as a correction to the coverage. Much had been made in the press that week about the ascendance of the far right in France and Italy, he said — noting that Italy had a fascist prime minister and that the most popular party in France, if polls were to be believed, was the extreme right party.[1]
But “Greece had its elections two weeks ago, and eight parties won seats in parliament. Six of them are right-wing parties, and four of them are right-wing extremist parties. There are two neo-Nazi parties that won a total of 13 seats in the Greek parliament.”[1]
The wider trend
He read the Greek figures as part of a pattern rather than an outlier: “This is a very disturbing trend that we’re seeing all over Western Europe. And we already are seeing entrenched right-wing parties in Poland, in Hungary, in the UK, let’s be honest.”[2]
Earlier in the same exchange, Kiriakou had summarised the electoral choice now on offer across much of Western Europe as “a right-wing government, a far right-wing government, or an extreme right-wing government. Those are their choices.”[3]
