As a case-in-point, and just as relevant to #Oct20, the TV documentaries show how a Fascist group called Avvanguardia Nazionale were paid by the Italian secret services to invent a fake Maoist group, who promoted themselves as more extreme than the Italian Communist Party, by fly-posting Maoist posters and taking Maoist banners and flags to ruin left-wing demos (watch from 2:09:47 into the main You Tube clip, from 32:48 into the Google video clip + still photo) -
