Dishonesty 

Alright so dishonesty. You can be a "Dishonest" person. Right. Like, in general. Right? So that could be considered a personality trait. Right? So the "Dishonesty" dimension would be split into the sub dimensions of Intellectual dishonesty (deceptive wordplay or sophistry) and Overt dishonesty (compulsive lying or lying for sport). And I imagine it would be linked to low conscientiousness... Yeah... That sounds about right... but I'm pretty low in that so it's strange that I'm hyper honest... I don't know how I would reconcile that... Fuck it. I'm the exception to all rules. Nevermind me. It's probably conscientiousness.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
