Feds "accidentally" drops the hogs leashes leading to the violently hilarious barnstorming of the Capital as a means of both redirecting popular opinion on gutting police budgets and giving the State a convenient escape route from actually having to tackle its internal contradictions by utilizing these dipshit maga lead paintsniffers as a perfect scapegoat to not just justify keeping the militarized policestate but also expanding it
Don't forget that a lot of these right wing groups are full of informants and agents. Proud Boys and The Base are two good examples. Feds definitely knew about 1/6 and some of their informants/agents were involved in planning it. Seems to me like the FBI has started using some of the same tactics they use with "Muslim extremists", ie actively facilitating and encouraging terrorist acts. This is pretty clear in that Michigan Governor kidnapping plot where a bunch of the guys involved were working for the feds.
I think that they knew and they let it happen, but I don't think that they sat down and planned this as some huge fed op to bring about pro cop discourse is more what I mean
Think what you want but a lot of the people running these right wing groups are literally feds and paid informants. Would they put these people in these places of power and not direct their actions to some degree? That wouldn't make any sense
It's "if you do exactly what I say, that's good, and if you do terrorism above and beyond what I ask of you, I can also work with that."
agent provocateurs are a known thing ofc, but they tend to escalate what is already happening than direct and start shit. I just don't think that directly raiding he US Capitol building is in their interests if they want arrests, which is why they have cops in these organisations, or on some grand scale to rally public opinion. they could have just had people fight cops in the street and gotten that s too. I think that this was shit that got out of hand, and was allowed to get out of hand because chuds are not a real threat, that the establishment and the media are now milking. but conspiracies of some huge operation? I don't buy it, especially when you think how many feds and cops are chuds themselves and know this makes the right look bad.
Agent provocateurs don't start shit? Isn't that what provocateur means lol. Someone who initiates shit? Also, hate to break it to you but they don't have feds in these orgs to get arrests. They are there to guide these groups in ways that are beneficial to the feds and the state at large.
From the chuds I know (most of my family, yeesh) they don't think 1/6 made them look bad. They think it's cool
