I’m not saying there’s widespread public support for the FBI routinely investigating the childhood activities of alleged current communists, but if there is, how hard would it be to manufacture public support for the FBI routinely arresting children whom they have determined are likely future communists?
just call 'em a domestic terrorist, say they were going to shoot up the school, and drag them away in a “pre-emptive arrest”
Libs would probably applause the feds for “preventing a massacre” or something and meanwhile the detained kid will be automatically be totally smeared by the media. I believe they could do something like that right now if they wanted.
I dream of Frankie Boyle as Chief Military Commissar in charge of the military occupation of England.
Alternatively as Commissar of Reeducation.
wait, what does the story have to do with Frankie Boyle
yeah his response of “i’m not a labour supporter” was a proper cop out. i’ve never seen him say shite since then and he’s gotten more outspoken about being leftist so who knows if he feels any regret there
I wonder how successful a reverse infiltration op would be. Like a bunch of activists/union members joining the FBI for the long con to help their cause. There will be blood on your hands for sure, but is it worth it? Perhaps, but even then there’s the difficulty of living a double life, having no one you can trust, and not succumbing to the federal agent life.
Few people who work against these agencies have done so over ideology. But I guess you can always use the “I’m a proud American and only leaked info to unions and civil rights group about infiltrations because I care about the first amendment, and using violent felons as informants to silence opposition is a violation of the constitution.”
