Wait until they hear about Google, Facebook and TikTok
At the time when the threat of Russian interference was completely overlooked
Given the fact that the SWP covered up systemic rape allegations against one of its senior members, I say they deserve being spied on.

In the 70s and early 80s one assumed that all lefty meetings were either infiltrated or bugged. Now shown to be accurate, not paranoid.
Nay doubt it was. Especially when they were the least likely threat to well anything apart from profits.
This is just absolutely crazy. Off the scale crazy. I’m astonished at the level of inane detail they went into.
Western governments have always happily flushed billions down the toilet spying on peaceful lefty groups, and all with no accountability.
that’s why if you’re protesting wear a full face mask … any protest!
Also, infiltration of environmental/climate groups over the past twenty years. Male undercover cops having sexual relationships with female activists, in some cases for several years, to gain and maintain access to groups. People have been left emotionally devastated and scarred.
Everybody knew that the SWP was 90% cops haha
>abolition of capitalism through revolutionary means.
That sounds like a pretty good justification for keeping an eye on them…?
Surprise surprise. Capitalist systems will always prefer fascism and fascist tangental ideologies when the alternative is empowering the people and workers.
Weird that I normally see right wingers (not neonazis) being paranoid about the government watching them or arresting them for their political beliefs.
