Sponsors
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| Ford Foundation | In addition to its own billionaire agenda, also known to have been $$$ middleman for covert CIA funding. |
| Open Society Foundations | A NGO operating in more countries than McDonald's. It has the tendency to support politicians (at times through astroturfing) and activists that get branded as "extreme left" as its founder is billionaire and bane of the pound George Soros. This polarizing perspective causes the abnormal influence of the OSF to go somewhat unanswered. |
