@0c1a9324 Note here that everything in 55 Tufton St is related. ERG, CRG, GWPF, IEA, NZW, Taxpayers Alliance, and on and on. It's a chaos actor system that generates Think Tanks, APPGs, Lobby groups using the same funding sources and the same players, over and over again. It wouldn't surprise me if they've automated it and use AI to identify niches to exploit. Like early chapters in Accelerando.
