That’s a really good piece. I take issue with what the author admits is dicey territory: joining groups. Groups generally have lists. You don’t want to be on one of those lists. It would be nearly impossible for an IRL group (that is not your local church) to avoid ending up as a fed honeypot. Apart from the joining groups thing, this is all pretty sound.
“It would be nearly impossible for an IRL group (that is not your local church) to avoid ending up as a fed honeypot.”
Agreed—but for those who will join groups there are some things they can do to minimize risk:
—You know that person volunteering to get you weapons and high tech equipment? He is a fed. Keep him in the group so you can watch him but make sure all leadership knows he is a fed. If anyone in leadership does not “get it”—they are either rock stupid or a fed themselves.
—Use bug detectors routinely. That will not protect you from the most sophisticated Deep State tech—but the perfect is the enemy of the good.
Others can add to the list.
Joining groups is risky at best—but at least you should know what you are walking into with eyes wide open.
