There are think tanks who actually do want to educate, rather than propagandize. There’s an enormous difference between, say, the Johns Hopkins Institute for Policy studies and, say, the “Ethics and Public Policy Center”, where the editor of the National Affairs article that Killgore is infatuated at works. The latter self-describes as:

As with anything, just because something is called a ‘think tank’ it shouldn’t gain or lose any credibility; it should be judged on its output.

Yes, I misspoke. Heritage may have started as a real ‘think tank’ but it’s now a propaganda organization.
