I doubt it (it's more CIA bad, FBI good) but it was, like most shows, definitely getting some sketchy funding. See Sarah Z's episode on Buffy's "Beer Bad." And I blame it for propagating a lot of the conspiracy theories that got us to the political place we are today. I don't think Chris Carter knew either.

This, 100%. Including the part about the popularity of modern conspiracy theories, which is highly unfortunate.

Eh, X-Files isn't really that much of an FBI Good show. Yeah, Mulder and Scully and Skinner are heroic, but the rest of the agency is pretty thoroughly compromised.

This. Even in the beginning, the narrative definitely leaned fairly heavily towards FBI Bad, like, systemically. Most of the higher-ups were painted as either actively involved in societally destructive machinations or passively complicit.
