Labor activist Talia Jane said he is "reviled throughout the activist space", noting he had been escorted from a December 12 event at Black Lives Matter Plaza after he was identified.[3] Many suspected him to be a double agent working for law enforcement. An activist from Portland warned people not to trust him, after he got local activists arrested in September 2020 by leading them down a wrong route and into a police kettle. Anonymous activists from Seattle published a memo in November 2020 accusing him of being an agent provocateur, pointing to his getting activists arrested or exposing their identities. Activists noted that his brother is a pro-Trump supporter, a supporter of the "Blexit" movement and speaking at a Proud Boys rally. After a man was shot in Provo during the protests in summer 2020, a right-wing militia started appearing to police Sullivan's group. During one of his rallies, Sullivan handed the microphone to a Proud Boys member. According to Lex Scott, he told them that his group wanted to work with them, which led to other left-wing activists refusing to work with him. He later got his group firearms training. As he began carrying assault rifles to protest, this invited hostility from both the right and the left.<br /><br />After the Capitol storming, Sullivan said he is not affiliated with BLM or antifa, nor with the pro-Trump crowd ... Federal authorities had not identified Sullivan as anti-fascist[5] and ... BLM Utah had for months disassociated itself from Sullivan on concerns that he might be associated with the Proud Boys.</i><br /><br />It seems to me that nobody on the left or the right wants anything to do with him, and it does seem to me that he is an agent provocateur. But if not with the left or with the right, I would assume he'd be working for law enforcement. But since the FBI and law enforcement are the ones making the case against him, that kinda rules that out as well.<br /><br />He seems to me like a random wackjob with no real set positions on anything.Guavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16568182455048577926noreply@blogger.com
