I think even more damaging than the bad PR of the group is that we now suspect any slightly radical right wing group that does ANYTHING to be feds. This has effectively paralyzed the radical right, and I suspect planting this suspicion is more likely to be the fed op.
Don't mistake this as an accusation. The feds that planted this I think are more likely to be active on "anonymous" forums.
I'm not arguing that what PF does is effective, or even productive. That they are doing something is ten miles better than all the feckless fucking keyboard warriors who do nothing but bitch and moan on the internet and call anyone actually getting off their ass a fed.

This is the point I'm trying to make.

I would have to agree with you about the fed accusations being an actual fed op.
Its not organic and contradicts the original glowie meme, which provides a humerous (and effective) solution to the fed question.
