The distinction the parent post making is that, it was an agent provocateur who intentionally did things that would have crossed the line into actionable threats of harm. If that's true, it would seem to be an effective way of silencing people.
This also is how authoritarian governments create cause to neutralize groups.
Looking through that lens there are/were far more than one agent provocateurs. and in that case what's the difference.
