Fed poster

A fedposter is an imageboard or forum poster who is suspected of being a federal agent. Originating from 4chan's /pol/ board and associated communities, the term refers to a poster who openly calls for violence against others or encourages one to break the law in some manner.

There is no known incident of anyone in the federal government actually doing this. These posts are generally made by bored police who have too much funding, hoping to entrap someone into saying the same thing and getting visited locally for it, or by naive people saying the same things and ending up getting visits from the police, but almost universally it is by AntiFa, JIDF, Ukranian groups, or yroubled individuals attempting to trick someone into violating the platform%s TOS.
