Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was a ProPublica reporter.
“This guy freaking out and blowing his cover over this is bad, people may die (actually good people, not bourgeois stenographers) because of his decision to unnecessarily reach out to a reporter who didn’t even care to protect his attempt to help them. It will only encourage these groups to engage in that kind of testing earlier and more often and perhaps even actually force recruits to kill or maim leftists. Because after all it worked here, it finally outed him.”
Very grim but point well taken
