@[email protected], I propose a solution to this conundrum:

  • Terrorizing bourgeoisie = good
  • Terrorizing proletariat = bad

Terrorism and vandalism are not the same thing.

so destruction of property for the purpose of political agitation is just as chill as spray painting the side of a rusted train? wow the world has changed

The government is tied to corporations. The Government exists to carry out the will of the monopolies, and reign in the populace. Throwing billions of dollars to corrupt politicians to carry out their aims does not a democracy make.

I can play this game too. Oh so murdering people for the sake of a political agenda is just as chill as damaging property?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

damaging property is nothing. Especially the property of the rich use to try to delude us

humans are a different matter, but if your existence relies on the exploitation of the earth, I think they've declared war against every other person alive. Politics is a reflection of human wills and goals, not some thing you snark at from your couch scrolling tiktok. Politics is every thought and idea of change and invention. Every murder is a political murder. If it is a man who beat his wife to death that is a reinforcement of patriarchy. If a driver falls asleep at the wheel and hits a biker, that is a result of capitalist overworking and insufficient bike infrastructure.

All of this is a direct result of capitalism, which the rich enforce the corrupt and aged economy with their wealth. These passive deaths are also murder, so should we just do nothing? Just wait for the same people who've enslaved the world to free us because we asked? You have morals, they would not think twice about killing everyone you know if it meant defending their wealth. Do not allow them to have all the power because of a false morality.

Did you reply to the wrong person?

[–] Sterile_Technique 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Would that constitute terrorism? I thought that was just limited to political goals, not consumer shit.

If yes, then terrorist that shit up!

People are saying terrorism.

This sounds more like vandalism.

There’s quite a bit of difference.
