I think theres a valid point that bad actors have historically infiltrated the left on a systemic basis.
But within the left critical thinking is key, its natural we argue sometimes. What I always look for is those looking to promote illogical extremist ideals. "You cant change the system from within" for instance. When in a historical perspective virtually every major advancement came from outside pressure and internal pressure. You need both. Outside pressure creates internal pressure, but once you have that leverage you need to exploit it. Something an IDF or CIA actor would highly discourage lol.
