Once these two sets of ideas take hold, the activists will start spreading them through their own networks. Conflict with people holding the other set will only encourage them to spread the set they're holding with more urgency.

All the purging will undercut their ability to organise these mass protests, as will the general climate of fear and distrust created by all the spreading of our FUD, and the wedges it will drive between allies, and eventually even friends.

Once these two sets of mutually-reinforcing, movement-breaking thought viruses are in the community, our job is pretty much done. We can sit back and watch them tear their own movements to pieces, both sides absolutely convinced they're fighting the good fight against their corporate globalization enemies.

The only thing we have to do is monitor their networks for anyone who gets wise to what we're up to, and accuse them of being a Nazi (*and* a commie).

Job done.
