Alliances

Corrupt, Inc.

Corrupt, Inc. is a civilization watchdog built on the premise that when humans form a mental image of the world that does not correspond to reality, they become corrupt and destroy themselves. The mission of Corrupt is to point out how human drama corrupts everything we try to do. By mocking the failures of modern society through humorous news and science commentary, we inspire people to embrace a heroic spirit in the face of daily adversity.

Corrupt have assisted ITP by providing a translation of Pentti Linkola's Can Life Prevail and the theme banners for this web-site. We plan to continue working with them in the future.
