An important part of @MaxBlumenthal's deep investigation into how billionaires and US intelligence-linked foundations have co-opted the environmentalist movement is his damning section on Naomi Klein, which needs to get more attention (thread below) https://thegrayzone.com/2020/09/07/green-billionaires-planet-of-the-humans/
Naomi Klein has moved noticeably to the right in the past decade.
In 2017 she condescendingly demonized Venezuela's elected socialist gov't as mere "petro-populism."
Today Klein is the "Gloria Steinem Endowed Chair" at Rutgers University.
Gloria Steinem was a literal CIA agent

In her famous 2007 book "The Shock Doctrine," Naomi Klein correctly showed how the Ford Foundation was a CIA cutout
Less than a decade later Klein's film "This Changes Everything" was funded by CIA cutouts the Ford Foundation and Rockefeller Brothers Fund

Susan Rockefeller was a co-executive producer of the documentary based on Naomi Klein's book “This Changes Everything.”
Her husband is the son of oligarch David Rockefeller, a US government-linked cold warrior and close CIA ally who backed the Chile coup https://thegrayzone.com/2017/03/21/david-rockefeller-us-foreign-policy-cia-kissinger/

Most shocking of all, guess who has funded @NaomiAKlein's position, Rutgers University's "Gloria Steinem Chair in Media, Culture, and Feminist Studies":
Convicted sexual predator Harvey Weinstein, CIA cutout Ford Foundation and billionaire Sheryl Sandberg

Naomi Klein was also previously a member of the board of directors of 350 .org, the textbook example of a co-opted environmentalist group.
350 was incubated by CIA cutout Rockefeller Brothers Fund, which is closely linked to coup architect Henry Kissinger

Someone also correctly documented in their book how CIA cutout the Ford Foundation helped support the fascist coup regimes in Chile and Indonesia and trained the regimes' extreme neoliberal economists
Who documented this important information? Oh right, @NaomiAKlein back in 2007

The problem with the Non-Profit Industrial Complex is many of these "NGOs" and big foundations are outsourced instruments of influence for US gov't intelligence agencies and billionaires
They might seem like they fund "progressive" causes, but it's co-option / counter-insurgency

The Non-Profit Industrial Complex is how formerly radical writers who once documented US-backed fascist coups are co-opted and defanged with six-figure sinecures at billionaire-funded outlets, to do groundbreaking coverage like "How to Jam the Trump Brand" https://theintercept.com/2017/04/12/how-to-jam-the-trump-brand/
. @NaomiAKlein participated in an event with CIA cutout the Rockefeller Brothers Fund (RBF) in 2019.
The Rockefeller oligarchic dynasty is closely linked to US intelligence.
RBF founded a "Special Studies Project" in the 1950s, led by Kissinger, to plan the Cold War on socialism
