    I mean they're saying it's a proposal right here

    To be honest, I think taking the phrase

    Beware of anarchists using "leftist" rhetoric to justify allying with US imperialism

    As sectarian disregards the fact everyone replying would agree with

    Beware of "anarchists" using "leftist" rhetoric to justify allying with US imperialism

    Kinda requires twisting the sentiment, which is "watch out for this tip-of-the-iceberg infiltration tactic", adding that police documents clarified the anarchist point of view was the easiest for them to see a way to twist into this sort of imperialist messaging.

    I am familiar with the "storm of willing hands" FBI paper about antifa where they say it's challenging to infiltrate an organization that doesn't exist. This is talking about how they planned to shape pseudo anarchist groups.

    I think the antiwork reddit moderator who went on Fox is probably a good suspect idk

    There's Beau of the Fifth Column (who NYT and ADL mysteriously promoted) and Robert Evans types who wear it on their sleeve and receipts

      I see where you come from and you are right that creating these groups can be a tactic to take the wind out of the sail of antiimperialist tactics, but it works on other ways as well, see the antiglobalist movement at the end of the 90's and early 00's, where anarchists took the lead but were held back by statist - mostly succdem - people.

      Never watched Beau luckily but saw how he turned out to be an asshat, same with Robert Evans and the Bellingcat "anarchists".
