        No need when they put the jackets on by themselves, knowingly or not.

        People who get rhetorically close but don’t cross were never going to in the first place.

            Hmm. You gotta expain this one to me. Calling out these bozos (it’s your post tho?) will ruin which community?

              In the past, feds would fed-jacket communists in order to divide the community and start witch-hunts against fellow comrades, turning comrades against comrades.

              This happened especially during the 60s/70s.

              And in other eras.

              It’s a common FBI tactic.

                So no one can be called a Fed even if they do the most Fed-like things?

                …right. I understand the concept, but cheers. I fail to see how it applies here. To a post criticising a socialist group for being undercover libs, the oppest of ops lol. A post you submitted mind. Come on.

                    There’s a difference between fed jacketing DSA and fed jacketing named individuals. DSA is absolutely infiltrated.

        It doesn’t really matter whether we do or not. These kinds of people are utterly useless and treacherous all the same.
