An emerging trend in right-wing MAGA and disinfo spaces is the cribbing of the term "Blue Anon" to describe liberal conspiracy theorists and the subsequent opening of the umbrella encompassed in that term to include disinfo/anti-extremism researchers and activists.

I first saw the term used by leftists to describe liberals who were quick to accuse every bad thing in the world of being pro-Russia somehow. Now wielded by the right, it's being used in classic childlike deflection: "I know you are but what am I?"
