Terrorism just boils down to "political violence against non-combatants".
And by that definition yes the US government is 100% a terrorist organization
Oh... it's not just the US, it's practically every government.
Always has been.
Functionally the definition is "political violence by non-state actors" i.e. it's not terrorism when the government does it
Right, HTS in Syria were terrorists until they won.
"We're all domestic terrorists"
Suspects, not citizens
I'm not sure how to feel about front liners at these death factories.
On the one hand, worker solidarity, they're clearly not capitalists.
On the other hand, it's a damn death factory.
Encourage them to participate in internal sabbotage that will gum up the works without getting fired.
It's the default word they use if they don't like you and are afraid of you. It gets thrown around a lot during conflicts, kind of like the word "woke".
the corporate class can't tolerate pushback from the plebes
Triple Ds. Guy Fieri better speak up now before they arrest him.
