A very in-depth article which sheds light on the dense interconnected web of funding and orgs trying to shape public narratives.
The article leaves me immensely skeptical about impact, any impact, but gives the impression of a grift - the mark being the billionaires and the con-women/men being the twenty somethings who have convinced these billionaires to pay them six figures a year to shape narrative.
The billionaires choice on how to spend their hard earned dollars but leaves society with an entitled class who have no real economic skills than pleasing funders and wanting to tell the rest of how how to think, act and vote.
