Lefty Tech Rag Panics As Manhattan Institute Pivots From Killing DEI To Crushing NGO-Funded Riots

The Manhattan Institute's shift from advocating against diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives to focusing on penalizing NGOs fueling riots has sparked a heated reaction from left-leaning media, notably Condé Nast's Wired magazine. Wired's Ali Winston seems frustrated by the institute's push for new state laws targeting the financial backers of disruptive protests. This pivot underscores a broader debate about the role of civil unrest and the responsibilities of organizations that exploit it for political gain, highlighting tensions between free speech, public order, and the influence of non-governmental funding.
