Here's the page of The Tides Foundation, in case anyone is curious: https://www.tides.org/ https://www.tides.org/
Here's the Wikipedia page on them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tides_Foundation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tides_Foundation
(which some might claim is biased, because of connections to the foundation)
Here's a page that contains some more information about controversies, as well as some numbers on grant recipients: https://www.influencewatch.org/non-profit/tides-foundation/ https://www.influencewatch.org/non-profit/tides-foundation/
(which others might claim is also biased, because of Capital Research Center)
As a European, I don't really have a horse in this race, but the whole foundation doesn't strike me as one that's too extremist, but maybe that's because I'm also left leaning by US standards, or haven't read into it too deeply. That whole "dark money" thing is perhaps the most objectionable aspect, otherwise it seems like a mostly progressive social justice movement.
Either way, I suggest people familiarize themselves with the foundation themselves and come to their own conclusions. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
