      No need when they put the jackets on by themselves, knowingly or not.

      People who get rhetorically close but don't cross were never going to in the first place.

        Even so, wantonly fed-jacketing can ruin a community and has been done by actual feds.

          Hmm. You gotta expain this one to me. Calling out these bozos (it's your post tho?) will ruin which community?

            In the past, feds would fed-jacket communists in order to divide the community and start witch-hunts against fellow comrades, turning comrades against comrades.

            This happened especially during the 60s/70s.

            And in other eras.

            It's a common FBI tactic.

        There are many good comrades in DSA.

        It matters because it shouldn't be normalized.
