So it's impossible to design a politically neutral organisation? Depressing.

"Politically neutral" is a nonsense concept. You can make a politically flexible organization, you can make an organization that tries to operate orthogonally to the existing political powers in the world, but if you do something that has a real effect on the world, some component of that effect is by nature political. You can try to balance yourself in the overton window, but even that is a decisively centrist position.
