      Terrorism is when you refuse to be a puppet of the U.S. empire, and the more you fight back against the U.S. empire, the terroristier it is. - Carl “no excuses” Marks or somthing

      Seriously though, I have yet to see a definition of the word that doesn’t apply to the empire and its running dogs many times more than it applies to whoever they throw it against. They way they use it, it has lost all meaning, if it ever had one.

      It really is just liberal brainworms + US foreign policy .

        Look at that beautiful candy on wikipedia:

        “By whom” and “Citation needed” right from the start, and all those definitions are still correct for west more than for anyone else. Especially point 4 is noteworthy because sanctions.

        The definition I learned in my Political Science class (yes, I know it’s a lib institution) described terrorism as being violence targeted at civilians rather than military and the government, which literally applies to the empire as a whole 😭 and yet its consistently never used in that way.
