I like to think that Free Republic is important enough to merit a few enemy

Could be.

I don't think being skeptical of Powell and Krakens is necessarily
a rock solid indicator that someone is an enemy agent though.

Believe it or not, folks can have opinions all by themselves.
Almost organically even.
