FBI Labels Anti-Fascists and Anti-Racists as Violent Extremists - Lemmy.World
A recently released Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) document titled
“Domestic Terrorism Symbols Guide”* links common protest symbols to “terrorism”
— another marker in a common theme of conflating militant protest for social
justice with deadly terrorist violence within the United States. Groups like the
American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the Brennan Center have raised
warnings about such documents, citing inadequate protections for people’s
constitutional rights.
I refuse to believe those groups are terrorist organizations because the CIA has never armed them.
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if there were syops to radicalize anti-fascist groups to make them less appealing to the masses.
This is essentially my pet conspiracy theory about Alex Jones. He was a plant by the CIA, to make all conspiracy theorists look absolutely batshit crazy. By having him peddle the extreme theories right alongside the “these are a little too close to reality, and the people are getting dangerously close to figuring it out” theories, they’re able to discredit those accurate theories. Because now they don’t need to attack the individual theory; They can just attack the face of conspiracy theories.
I feel like that plan is too smart for the CIA. Remember this is the same organization that regularly had employees secretly drugging each others coffee with LSD so much that it became common place around the office. And also tried to convince communists in the Philippines that vampires where real despite Philippine culture/mythology not having vampires.
