We're bashing heads over denotation vs connotation. I'm sticking with the former. Making up or ignoring definitions is a big part of what makes politics infuriating; we don't need to do that to Luigi.
Then why not use another word with the same denotation, but different connotation. Why "terrorist?" Why not revolutionary, freedom fighter, martyr, or saint?
