20. Some people who act as black bloc protesters
Sun Jan 11, 2026, 02:23 AM
Yesterday

are in fact infiltrators sent by police, fbi, etc. Some actual black bloc protesters are actually undercover agents. Most of them are simply anarchists or from left wing groups.
But anyone who encourages violence or destruction of property, whether black bloc or not, is the enemy of anyone who wants to see the reich-wing in this country removed from power. Violence and property destruction are the actions of useful idiots which cause the apathetic and ignorant third of this country to distrust anyone on the left and throw their support behind the reich-wing which promises security even as they use those useful idiots to cause chaos.
