    This whole saga is hilarious. I wonder what this person’s motivation for doing this is? What are they thinking will happen? Do they expect all the “tankies” will just go “Yes, I never thought of it like that before, this link to the CIA’s website is very compelling evidence that I am completely wrong and will change my mind posthaste!”

      I’m 99% sure that person was a paid propagandist. I don’t make that claim lightly because I think quite often libs do state department work for free, but this one, well, they set off every one of my “this person is being paid to try to make communists look bad on the internet” alarm bells.

        If they were, they probably wouldn’t sound like a cliche teenage American “anarchist” though. Real feds are much harder to spot, and mostly lurk to keep tabs on people, this is far too incompetent for the feds.
