- SideburnsOfDoom 5y agoMy apologies. That kind of organisation has got a very poor reputation, for funding reasons. I did not know much about this one, and it appears that the assumption was not accurate in this case.
- pjc50 5y agoIt's entirely reasonable: whenever you see "think tank", you should think "propaganda sockpuppet", and ask yourself whether they're likely to be on your side or not based on who they're funded by. Chatham House are on the respectable end of the spectrum.
- danaris 5y agoIt's reasonable to question. It's less reasonable to find their About page and post vague FUD about where they're physically located while ignoring the easily-accessible disclosure of funding sources.
- kmlx 5y ago> whenever you see "think tank", you should think "propaganda sockpuppet" this is a myopic view.
- SideburnsOfDoom 5y agoIt's realistic.
