I was considering joining an org, I won’t say who, but they invited me to a protest without organizational safety briefing and protocols of safety when doing a protest. Maybe I need to touch grass and more opsec paranoid than most. I asked to join the org then had a video meeting, then was swiftly invited to protest a place not real with a strong possibility of being observed by people from that non existent place. I’m not sure if it was timing or sloppyness. I’m not close to the org so I don’t know how much they have my back if I’d personally experience a dialectial relationship with the entity in question. They also communicated over clear text.

Is this a sign of incompetence by the organizers or a honeypot?

We were not plotting anything illegal, I just don’t want things tied to my identity following me around more than they need to.

Do even Marxist orgs handle security so flippantly ? Am I worrying too much?
