I feel like I'm missing context
Before: cia was doing real work like overthrowing regimes that owners get an ick from
Now: they have to be in here with us justify Israeli genocide while getting abused by the shit posters.
Assuming there's not some new thing:
The recent US general election was, as usual, a face-off between the two predominant parties. The incumbent party, while nominally being the relative "left" party, continued the unbroken support the US has provided to Israel since its conception, despite recent genocidal activity. There are some who insisted that, while that support is reprehensible and isn't representative of the will of the left, the alternative party would be just as bad for Palestine while also being worse by most other metrics (including LGBTQ+ rights).
There are some who suggest that those insisting such a thing are shills or intelligence agents, logging into niche leftist spaces to manufacture tepid consent, rather than individuals expressing genuine concerns.
Some people on the internet are saying it's okay to not support Palestine because they're not pro LGBTQ enough.
It's an insane argument to make so I guess that's why OP feels like it's CIA.
Those are some wild lines of reasoning, on both sides.
It is a dilatory tactic to split the conversation and turn into left right circle jerk or anything really as long as the plebs don't talk about Israeli genocide and war crimes.
This tactic is used for anything that owner or any sovereign doesn't like.
It works too.
Luigi and Gencoide are two exceptions where they could not turn public opinion. So thre do appear to be some limits to gen pop larping talking points they been fed by the media/influcer/politicians whores.
That's why they want to end internet privacy. Aint nobody gonna be posting their support for the based Gigachad we call Luigi if they lock you up just for typing the words
Well there is no privacy if spooks are out to get you. I think that's why they made up terrorist charges for Luigi, so now all the glowies can "help"
They could USSR repression route but that's hard to enforce if population as a whole won't larp teevee talking points as instructed.
They have a huge PR issue that no amount of censorship can fix. Going after that lady, was a over reaction and it showed how pathetic these parasites really are. Using the state like their person towel boys and the feds obligated, like a good little bitch.
