How nice of you to suppress yourselves in order to save the administration the effort of having to do so.

They don't need infiltrators. They'll just show images and videos of some other violent protest from years ago that happened somewhere else and claim it's happening now. (like they've done before. I'm sure they already have the videos selected and ready to go.)
Videos of you beating the crap out of anyone talking violence will be shown without context and lied about who is being targeted to claim the protest is being violent.

It does not matter what you do, they will call you violent and treat you as such. I don't know if Lemmy has an actual community for the extreme right MAGAs, but go look at the Reddit r/conservative community on any day and see how many posts are calling the current protest violent. Reality has a Liberal bias so they do not care what it says, they will listen chronic liars that tell them what they want to believe is true.

On X, formerly Twitter, the Department of Defense's Rapid Response account posted a video that appeared to show burning, graffitied police cars during protests in Los Angeles this week.

However, the fact-checking website Snopes said the image showed protests in Los Angeles following the death of George Floyd in May 2020.
