Warning to activists: Agents provocateur want to make you a terrorist. J.G.
VibesActivist Post For hundreds of years the establishment has used agents provocateur as a means of discrediting protest movements that spoke out against the injustice that was being perpetrated by the ruling class. Provocateurs are basically undercover agents, who infiltrate activist groups and try to provoke or push various members of these groups into doing something illegal that they can then immediately be arrested for.
Even if the activists aren’t arrested, the incident can then be used as a propaganda piece against dissenters everywhere. This is how things have played out throughout the course of American history, and im sure it goes back much further than that. In the past you could expect one of these snakes to be at protests trying to get people to throw bricks through windows, or even just doing it themselves when all else failed. This should be an issue that is discussed regularly at activist meetings and occupy general assembly’s worldwide. Recent sources: J.G. The Open Source Everything Manifesto: Table of Contents.
