The recent US general election was, as usual, a face-off between the two predominant parties. The incumbent party, while nominally being the relative “left” party, continued the unbroken support the US has provided to Israel since its conception, despite recent genocidal activity. There are some who insisted that, while that support is reprehensible and isn’t representative of the will of the left, the alternative party would be just as bad for Palestine while also being worse by most other metrics (including LGBTQ+ rights).
There are some who suggest that those insisting such a thing are shills or intelligence agents, logging into niche leftist spaces to manufacture tepid consent, rather than individuals expressing genuine concerns.
I feel like I’m missing context
Assuming there’s not some new thing:

Some people on the internet are saying it’s okay to not support Palestine because they’re not pro LGBTQ enough.
It’s an insane argument to make so I guess that’s why OP feels like it’s CIA.
Those are some wild lines of reasoning, on both sides.
