We are half minute away from feds kidnapping people in black vans for being barely related to something cool like organizing the increasingly furious workers. Now, of course everyone here (especially me) are terminally online grass-phobes, BUTT, those fucking feds will get a small bonus for every bagged poor idiot that they can pin to something revolutionary.

So, nuking a “dangerous radical forum” and placing anyone who participated in clandestine detention holes while CNN cheers is the exact thing they are gonna do when shit gets serious.

Then, yeah for fuck sakes don’t doxx yourself and don’t trust anyone here. Feds are present in every single org, why won’t they infiltrate cool forums like this.

Nobody in the internet is real.

This has the same energy as “Russia put everything they could into manipulating the 2016 election”.

There can’t be room for more than a few tens of thousands of federal agents, and in terms of benefit vs. cost, I doubt a forum like this

If it was stuff like organizing direct actions around land defense, that would be one thing. But a perpetual stream of people mostly talking about news and online stuff and shitposting? I don’t see how they’d justify the hundreds of thousands of dollars for it.

They only need one monitoring this, for example, me.

As a counter-point, I personally don’t really think so, however:

  • That could happen in the future, so I don’t want anything to be particularly doxxable on here. If the feds actually gave a shit to talk to me, or anyone else on here, it honestly would not be due solely to online activity, especially because this site is not (and should not be) a rallying point for IRL praxis or activities. If you’re doing a praxis, then yeah they might use your account here as part of their investigation.
  • A corollary to the above is that any liberals on this site who aren’t involved in any IRL shit should reach out to the deep-cover feds and just waste their time grilling or whatever.
  • A Chud raid could try and dox at any time, which would be just about as bad as fed activity.
