Let's remind everyone once again that copjacketing (saying someone is police or feds without documentation or other evidence of ties to pro-state forces) is a way to silence legitimate political critique.

Let's remind everyone that *literal feds* in organizations like the Black Panther Party would throw out *unsubstantiated* claims that others they organized with were cops & literally beat the shit out of them or harassed them out of the organization. https://twitter.com/no_slave_coasts/status/1275840521907380225

Let's remind everyone that you can point out when people are spreading counterinsurgency talking points & criticize them for it even if you aren't saying that person themselves is a cop, & it helps if you can lay out your reasoning and/or evidence clearly for others to examine...

Let's remind everyone that if someone is pulling some fuckshit & gets called out for it, is often possible to ask for clarification, describe behavior INSTEAD OF assuming intentions or motives, & follow up when new information sheds light on what's been said or done in the past.
