Tankies use a different flavor of propaganda than, say, Greenpeace, but even organisations like Greenpeace exaggerate the pros and downplay the downsides of their actions and beliefs - they aren’t going to put up a big poster that says “sometimes we could use our funds more effectively” or “in hindsight, this action has been counterproductive”.
They probably should. Transparency is a good thing.
Maybe. But the media game doesn’t work like that, currently.
For some of us it does. (Notwithstanding, for most people it does not.)
