I wonder if the WEF weaponised perception by just putting up pictures and “claiming” people as members Willy milly. Up until recently politicos etc wouldn’t have pushed back as they’d have just taken the association to add clout to their resume. Maybe the WEF used it as a strategy to gain clout by claiming anyone who was someone was involved to lend credibility to their shenanigans? I know one British MP who explicitly denied membership and said they put his pic up there after he had 1 brief meeting with them at parliament? If we maintain scepticism with anything and everything including who the WEF claims as members unless there’s evidence to corroborate one way or the other it won’t do us a disservice.
