Deep state operative

Deep state operative
"Deep state operative" is an umbrella term for those who work for the deep state, whether knowingly or unknowingly.

Not to be confused with deep state actor or deep state functionary.

A deep state operative is someone who is works, knowingly or otherwise, for deep state groups. This is an umbrella term including multiple different roles within the deep state.

Etymology

The term as defined in this way was originally introduced on Wikispooks in July 2018 to try to clarify the organisation of the deep state. Previously it was used as synonymously for deep state actor or deep state functionary. Kevin Ryan used the phrase (about Barry McDaniel) in August 2016 in an interview for Guns And Butter. A 2017 YouTube video was entitled Is Mike Pence a Deep State Operative?. Fox News also used the phrase in 2018. In September when CNN reported on Trump's use of the phase, they put it in single quotes, in keeping with their policy of deep state denialism.

Deep politicians

Full article: Deep politician

Simultaneously head of both the US deep state and the US public state, George H. W. Bush was the archetypal deep politician. His precise role in the JFK assassination remains unknown to this day.

Deep politicians are the initiators and key organisers of deep events. They typically display considerable autonomy and engage deep state actors to realise these events or to keep them hidden. This provides ample scope for laying false trails, arranging patsies etc. to prevent their exposure. They may set up new deep state milieux or seek to dominate existing ones.

Deep state actors

Deep state actors are not deep politicians since they are not initiators of deep events. However, they may exercise considerable autonomy and are more aware than the deep state functionaries they typically engage for the dirty work. They may be involved in a variety of deep events and groups.

Deep state functionaries

Deep state functionaries are the 'useful idiots' or foot soldiers of the deep state. Publicly, they may hold senior posts in society as politicians, military or business leaders, but they are relatively uninformed about the deep state groups for which they work.
