i actually thought this was sarcasm at first--DC sends undercovers into any and all developing protest groups within the city. some friends outed one & sued her.

oh for sure, i just mean i've seen it firsthand here.
...'any and all' is kind of overkill, but new groups making a splash get undercovers quickly. they used to be easy to pick out ("spot the crew cut"), but they're getting better. the dude i saw last fri looked like he belonged, it was his behavior that tipped me off.

was he like "hey man do you have any connections to the more radical and violent elements of this protest movement, and/or do you want to help me get everyone to riot?"

this has been SOP for decades - since at least the 60s - and I wouldn't be at all surprised if it dates back further than that to the big labor struggles of the early 20th century

plainclothes cops infiltrating a large protest group to monitor it is one thing and somewhat understandable, but then actively agitating false flag style to discredit it is so loathsome

we were relatively scattered along the block--waiting for enough of our folks to arrive to block the intersection. i headed over to one corner where a small crowd was gathering and saw a guy i thought was a livestreamer i knew. when i said 'hey whats up' and he turned to me i realized he was someone else. guy i'd never seen before. within a few minutes i noticed he was making a concerted effort to ask the names of everyone arriving in the group, without giving his own name. between learning people's names he was hollering at no one in particular LET'S SHUT THIS SHIT DOWWWWN. WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR, LET'S TAKE THE STREET.
we weren't ready. we didn't have a large enough crowd. LET'S FUCK UP THIS TRAFFIC GUYS COME ON
after another 15 minutes or so the crowd had grown enough to take the intersection. we did a die in. i stood up, and he was gone. got names, made transparently bad suggestions very loudly, and disappeared once we actually got moving--that smelled like cop to me.

he was also a larger middle aged white guy which, tbqh, you don't see very many of at a rush hour blockade against police brutality on a weekday.

Yes, that did not come out quite as I meant it.
