MR YouTube channel is still up https://youtube.com/@ModerateRebels

But it looks like Multipolarista has a reeupload of its debut video, presumably from when the MR YouTube channel was briefly rebranded. https://youtu.be/zJy0VXn-wN0?si=uD5HgcU-GAHRNN1P

It looks like Ben is correct here, there was a settlement regarding the channel and they've parted ways and Max owns the MR content produced under the Greyzone label. Not really sure what a settled dispute has to do with Ben's move to China or why publicly meltdown about it now.

Max can't legally force Ben to do anything while Ben is in China, since China likely won't enforce Western judgments about password control of a patreon or whatever. He was likely hoping to take Ben down legally and then Ben moved outside the reach of the law, so now he's trying to publicly smear him
