This has become very popular, and they do it openly: governments fund lobbying groups that agree with them, so that these people will go out and protest the government to do things the government already wants to do.
Basically, if you’re a government and you have a very unpopular agenda for your people, you pay protest and lobbying groups to go out and demand you do the thing you want to do, thus creating the illusion of support for the unpopular agenda you already had.
Despite the fact that this appears so obvious, most people are functionally retarded, and won’t be able to understand the concept if you try to explain it to them.
The European Commission has admitted to handing millions in taxes to a variety of NGOs, leading to accusations Europe is paying for itself to be lobbied by “far-left… radical” groups.
European Commissioner for Budget and Administration Johannes Hahn has admitted that the EU funds a wide variety of NGOs residing on the far-left of the political spectrum to the tune of millions of taxpayers’ hard-earned euros. The revelation led one European lawmaker to tell Breitbart News the revealed payments are sustaining a left-wing echo chamber in Brussels, saying: “The EU is creating and financing its own advocacy and activist groups so they can artificially weigh in on EU decision-making”.
The admission came in response to a written question to the European Commission signed by several MEPs within the right-leaning Identity and Democracy and European Conservatives and Reformists groups.
In a statement on the matter published on Tuesday, Commissioner Hahn admitted that the EU hands millions in funding to a wide variety of left-wing groups, with the bloc giving over €4.5 million to ‘No Peace without Justice’ — a group originating from the so-called ‘Transnational Radical Party’ — and over half-a-million to “Droit au Droit”, who profess to campaign for “marginalised groups”.
The Commission claims to have had no meetings with ‘No Peace Without Justice ‘, despite the multi-million payout.
