Some years ago here in Brazil there were widespread protests against president Dilma and in the middle there were Black Bloc groups doing vandalism and looting.
That’s called false flag operation. Police or shock groups dress in the target group way to cause and instigate vandal behavior then justify a more violent counter action.
Police and the fucking army abused that a lot during those times, btw. There are a number of videos of police detaining, then releasing specific black blocs, or being suspiciously non-violent. Not to mention the many times cops were caught planting evidence, one I recall seeing was with 3 cops searching a backpack, one of them turned it upside down to see if anything would fall out of it, meanwhile another cop stealthily dropped a bunch of fireworks and used that as proof to arrest the person.
