And some people are lied to and paid.

It's hard to see the difference from a distance, but as a general rule, always suspect the group that is in favor of the government. Even more if the protest is about investigating corruption.

No, don't suspect anyone without evidence. You should always approach people with respect and engage with them as an individual who disagrees with you, unless you have a good reason not to.
