Expressing the views that they do in that video does not make them Russian shills. As I understand the word "shill", they would be shills if they were expressing those views because they worked for Russia. But I see no evidence that they do.
Agreeing with certain arguments that supporters of Russia in the current war make does not make someone a Russian shill. It also does not make someone into a mouthpiece for Russian propaganda, unless you are willing to say that any time that a person agrees with a government's propaganda about anything, it makes that person a mouthpiece for the government's propaganda, even if when it comes to other issues the person might fundamentally disagree with that government.
Ah, sorry, didn't realize that! He probably only does The Intercept Brazil.
But he is the founder, and you can see his dna in that publication. Same ludicrous ideas and assumptions.

They're not removing propaganda only, they are also censoring pro Palestinian views in order to better enable their own propaganda.
Do not see how this shadow group of techies forcing their views on the world can be seen as a good thing.
