Hirpantesqutee
A catch-all term for things that are very similar to other things, but intentionally skewed in order to be recognizably based on something but different enough that if it was presented without context it would be unlikely to remind the viewer of the source material. It is similar to satire, or parody, but doesn't contain the connotation of mockery.

Ratfucker
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.
