I ventured over to the website "disboard" to try to find more online friends that are at least slightly left of "hunting the poors for sport"

I came across "Leftist Alternative" and I'm 99% convinced this was a fed honeypot

https://disboard.org/server/1085633149540777994

I answered all of their "prerequisite/verification" questions. Mostly my answers were of the variety of "Amerikkka imperializes the planet for the 1%" and "it's not the left vs right, it's the 99% vs the 1%"

They gave me a LOT of push-back for not acknowledging the "genocide" in China. But it really went downhill when I said that the imperialism of Ukraine by both USA and the Russian was/is a fairly nuanced topic.

Obama Admits US Role in Ukraine Overthrow

Pro-US, Nazi-glorifying government

Ultranationalism, anti-semitism, neo-nazi pogroms, and attacks on LGBT groups.

Ultimately I ended with, "Every war is a banker's war" and included I was against any/all imperialist movements (including Afghanistan, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Haiti, Congo, Liberia, and Sudan), but I could definitely see why NATO advancing, despite saying they wouldn't move a single inch towards Moscow, would incite a push from Russia to get their old trade buddy back (not to mention Blackrock/JPM front-running grain futures before the invasion and then vying to steal the mineral rights away from Ukraine in exchange to build it back up)

This really set the feds off..

"OH YOU HATE JEWS DO YA?" - 'Leftist' Alternative

"Wait... huh?" - Me

"A 'Bankers' War Huh??? We could just tell you were an anti-Semite"

"Are you insinuating.. that all Bankers are... jewish?" - Me

It immediately devolved into ad-hominems from the "lefties" so I left that right-wing hell-hole :(

Is Every "Leftist" Discord a Fed Honeypot?

Or are the lib brainwormsreally just that deeply ingrained at this point?

In the 90s the Feds invested a massive amount of effort hunting down and dismantling the radical environmentalists. The radical environmentalists never killed anyone and the worst property damage they can be accused of is torching a few suv dealerships. But the feds went after them just as relentlessly as they did right wing bombers for a simple reason; they were right.

If people had realized the radical environmentalists were correct and that capitalism was killing the planet, and that immediate and drastic action was needed, it would be far more dangerous to the regime than a hundre Oklahoma Federal Building bombings. So the radical environmentalists had to go. And then a few years later 9/11 happened and DC had unlimited authority to crush dissent anywhere in the world.

They still do that today with XR being defanged quick AF very, very early on since there was some strong anti-capitalist sentiment in the movement. What struck me as ill-thought was how even back in 2017 they or at least some of early leadership was on discord.
