What charity doesn't promote the interests of the people giving it money? Who doesn't believe their interests are for the common good?
If the problem is that you think some interests should be promoted and other not - well, I'm all in favor of that. The two of us just need to sort out which will be favored. My plan is for me to decide and you to agree with me. Sound good?

In some cases, evidence is fairly clear that the charities are used to actively undermine our society even further, e.g. Kochtopus.
