The same tactic could easily be employed by nationalists or
National-Anarchists. For instance, a nationalist posing as a
pro-multiculturalist could get invited onto a public forum, and then give a
speech saying that multiculturalism is great, because it causes social
alienation and helps advance our ideal of a rootless global population, more
easily herded into line

monochrom's Georg Paul Thomann is mentioned as an example for a good prank:
"In Austria, a group of artists who wanted to expose the pretensions of the
art world created a non-existent writer called Georg Paul Thomann, and it
actually worked. Newspaper articles were written about him because he was
perceived to be a somebody
even though he was fictional and his work was
non-existent! This fake artist was even chosen to represent Austria at a
world art fair."
... of course without mentioning that the reason was not having to represent
in person a country in which many people voted for a racist like Haider ...
