you know this is a fun joke to make, because it seems to be that many Americans think that the CIA is like some sexy movie organization. I don't know why. maybe it's because they live in a fantasy bubble. well, the cia isn't a sexy movie organization that's stuffed with dashing sociopaths, their agents are agents of the imperial state, they are instrumentalized tools to carry out the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. there's plenty of opportunists, thugs, useful idiots, low level office drones, executive sociopaths, military officers etc, and they're all as replaceable as any other officer of the bourgeoisie, in a factory, in a corporation, wherever.
crabapple and brownmoses are just crude tools, they don't need to be genius manipulators, they just need to manipulate the regular, evil amount. and many (mostly unbelieving petite bourgeois) radicals will continue to find some way to twist this fact and do mental gymnastics to somehow mystify the whole process. it's a waste of goddamn time, and the jokes you get are stupid. the Nazis are in power and they have all manners of thugs, cretins, and degenerates carrying out their work. you don't have to be the man in th e high castle to get it, just look at the damn historical record
i'm not sure what you mean. 'honeypot' does not mean 'agent'. it means an agent trying to use sexual entrapment against a specific target, like a potential recruit or a foreign official. like, if you sleep with someone and then read through their briefcase when they are asleep, that is a honeypot. that was what my joke was about.
ilmdge posted:you can use the term 'honeypot' more broadly than that. for example if my handlers asked me to post a thread asking for advice on leftist terrorism that might be a 'honeypot' trying to draw out responses from potentially dangerous comrades
there is a grammatical difference here. you are not the honeypot in this situation. the honeypot is the thread. this is also not how spies like me use it.

Her whole pornified shtick, and that of other imperial feminists is a means of "sexual entrapment" of potential recruits to capitalist ideology. Not only because attractiveness sells, as the advertising of more ordinary products than pseudo-leftist humanitarian-libertarianism shows, but because it also, paradoxically, gives a veneer of false innocence to the arguments she is making. When you make sure that no one ever forgets you have youth, a pretty face, and acceptably unconventional habits, it is easier to portray your actions as at worst harmlessly infantile antics, not anything worthy of any serious scrutiny--which would be less likely to happen if the person in question was older, homelier, or more reserved. Further, through her overt weaponizing of her own erotic desirability, attacks on MC are made out to be assaults on her sexuality, when its her work as a propagandist that is the real issue. As long as the discussion is channeled into being about the former instead of the latter, actual James Bond style boudoir intrigue is unnecessary.
"In reading the objections as being about the bodies themselves, as opposed to the systems of power they represent in tension with one another, we are effectively silenced. We read critique of Pussy Riot and FEMEN as being attacks against their bodies themselves. Even their agency is pushed aside in moments of crisis. This is misogyny."

So while excessive paranoia should be shunned, being complacent about the possibilities of infiltration should be avoided as well.

Yeah... that's what I'm doing?

....And I was trying to emphasize the other consideration. Because I don't think it ridiculous that security state would keep tabs on even the most ridiculous and hapless meeting places.
Particularly in this day or age; internet politics likely provides a lot of easy and relatively risk free busy work for informants. Easier than CPUSA-easy.

I just wrote two paragraphs about how the cia is not the movies and you responded to me with 'Yea but what about the movies? ???'
just call them shills for empire and leave it at that. it doesn't really change much in the calculus of resistance whether or not theyre freelancers or being piped their rhetoric

i wasn't talking about whether or not molly is an agent. i was making a joke about how if she's an agent it has almost nothing to do with us cosplayers.
He really did help stop the flow of Croatian arms into Syria, working with the New York Times though. That was probably a CIA job
