   Be extremely cautious when interacting with right wing agent provocateurs. They have adopted a strategy of gaslighting and subversion of meaningful discussion

   You may not be engaging in dialogue or “debate” so much as playing into their performance

   I don’t yet know of an effective strategy to combat this besides early detection. But if you’re in a heated argument, that can be difficult

      @cypnk It's not particularly novel. That sort of thing has been a staple of activists for ages. I've seen it from LGBTQA activists, vegans, green activists, pro-choice and pro-life ... really, it's not new at all.
