The Competitive Enterprise Institute is an industry advocacy group, with ties to Koch, coal, tobacco. https://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Competitive_Enterprise... Their "scientists" have no relevant credentials and are actually "public policy advisors", and usually spread their opinions across multiple unrelated fields (which happens to coincide with whatever disinformation they're trying to spread). I recently encountered them on Reddit, where people were trying to say the Australian bushfires were just caused by arsonists; these people are from the US and have no idea what's going on in Australia (how did they uncover evidence of arson before the local police?), there was absolutely no evidence for arson, and it didn't explain why it spread so far & rapidly. Please make sure you get your information from credible sources; as in, sources without a vested interest in industries that have a long history in disinformation campaigns. |
