Greetings Celtic,
The concept of free democracy is flawed by it's own core elements to begin with. It's purpose is to favor social equality and the means it does this is to dispense with the best interests of the minority.
The constitution in a free democracy, its courts of justice and law are based on self serving versions of truth. It is that selfish majority that have created a cocoon of ambiguity as a path for it's own darker agendas. A path that appears pure to the casual observer.
It is in the nature of the selfish self serving majority that the partnering exclusive little groups with special agendas are given the clear path to satisfaction of their own wishes. The Watch Tower Corporation has a legitimate place in this system by virtue of it's compliance with the nature of the context.
The delusion is that there can exist an ideal free society in the context of the democratic form of government. If it was ideal, it could not be a democracy because the essence of democracy is the dispensing of the best interests of the individual member to the benefit of the many. In a democracy, every individual looses. Far from ideal.
The issue in the context of the ideal would never be the legality of the WT corporation. The issue would be the legality of the democracy.
The Watch Tower Corporation uses theocratic war strategy. All that is is the selection of facts to present that agree with their best wishes. It simply avoids disclosure and arranges a version of the truth to attempt to meet their goals. An attempt to appear honest while not hurting their cause. In an ideal free society they nor anyone else would have to resort to the manipulation of the facts to meet their agenda.
The fact that groups manipulate and mangle is more of an indictment of the system than the group. When I want to study deceit and misrepresentation of the facts all I have to do is analyze a high level campaign for political office in a democratic system.
A real indictment of the Watch Tower Corporation is their claim of non involvement in political events. That of course is a flat lie. The Watch Tower Corporation is heavily involved in the legislative process by means of their lobbying such as they did in Greece when they issued a statement as well as a Proclaimer's book to every Greek government official they could find. They claim neutrality and neutrality is indifference. Lobbying is the farthest thing from indifference and lobbying (trying to influence a lawmaker or enforcer) is certainly political involvement.
The Watch Tower Corporation is also heavily involved in the political system at the Judicial branch. They brag about bringing the most cases to the United States Supreme Court. So on one hand, the Watch Tower Corporation brgas about non participating in politics while on the other hand they brag about being the most active in political involvement.
This is simply one more example of the policy of the applied dichotomy. That is, the teachings about the behaviors and the behaviors themselves do not match.
A good week and best wishes to all,
