    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 .

      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.
