Their terrorist, our freedom fighter
Hopefully ppl will realize the actual difference been the two
Somehow I’m less scared of Luigi than of those assholes.
One is a coordinated group working in lockstep to collapse everything as a primary political party that’s not only in power but in charge of every part of government.
The other is a single guy who acted in the interest of average people by killing someone ‘valuable’
The year of Luigi was 11 years early.
Good job, make that shit waaaay harder to convict 😙👌
We are all terrorists on this blessed day.
Speak for yourself.
Oh, stop yelling at them

The irony is that this was done to score propaganda points, but, and especially if Luigi keeps arguing the manifesto was fake and planted on him, this will make it harder for the charges to stick.
How can you even prove it was planted. Its your word against the cops and well, we may know cops are lying but the court won’t care.
The way the law works in this country is they have to prove the evidence wasn’t planted more than the Defense needs to prove it was.
Ken Penders insisting Archie’s contract with him was forged was enough to win him publishing rights even with Ken’s track record as a liar.
That is in practice not how it works.
It’s a disposable gun. Muad’dib wouldn’t have carried it across state lines, he’d have dumped it. The cops found it, and planted it on Luigi.
That’s for the courts to decide.
Huh, I guess a terrorist is a national hero. Hope others follow his fine work
Coughs in Elon
OK, actually this quite fits the definition of terrorism by the FBI:
Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups to further ideological goals stemming from domestic influences, such as those of a political, religious, social, racial, or environmental nature.
Personally I think that this definition sucks. If I steal an egg to make a statement against capitalism this might as well be considered terrorism. For reference I looked up the German definition of terrorism and I think that this definition is much better(translated with deeply since I’m lazy):
Terrorism is the sustained fight for political goals that are to be achieved with the help of attacks on the life, limb and property of other people, in particular through serious criminal offences such as those listed in Section 129a (1) of the German Criminal Code (StGB) or through other criminal offences that serve to prepare such offences.
The main difference is, that this definition only includes high level crimes and it also states that there has to be an active fight against some form of political system. I wouldn’t be to sure if the murder of the UHC CEO would be considered terrorism under the German definition. The reason I’m not so sure is, because I wouldn’t count one assassination an active prolonged fight(take this with a grain of salt, I’m not a lawyer or have any serious knowledge on the law).
Don’t understand me wrong, I also think that calling this is bullshit, I just want to inform you, that this isn’t anything they made out of thin air.
Ever notice how anyone fighting the status quo (even actual rebels in a state of war) are always called terrorists?
It’s a way to condemn by association (and dehumanise), as well as use all the anti-terror legal loopholes against you.
Pirates and emperors
The emperor imprisons thr pirate and berates him for thr violent chaos he was perpetuating against his empire . Calling him a pirate and a terrorist
Thr pirate replies "you do the same things to your own people and foreigners. When I burn down a house you call it terrorism. When you do it. You call it thr cost of war.
My actions are vilified because I’m a pirate. Your actions are excused because you’re an emperor
… or something like that
Would this make the police a terrorist organisation?
Well, look at that. We finally found what is needed to have a white “terrorist” instead of “someone with issues”: just target ultra rich people.
I think the difference in nomenclature may be down to how close the actions are to affecting real change.
Nah. Terrorism is a term exclusively reserved in the West for when rich people suffer consequences at the hands of those significantly poorer than them.
It is a completely valid, justifiable, and effective form of asymmetric warfare.
The ruling class wants to create the narrative that the only people who are allowed to fight back are those who spend lots of money, further enriching them in the process.
Justice is swift when it’s money on the line.
In totally unrelated threat to billionaire news:
The OpenAI whistleblowers death has been ruled a suicide.
Justice is swift when it’s
moneyruling authority on the line.FTFY
If he can be charged as a terrorist, so should the ceo’s that let people die for a profit
If he can be charged as a terrorist, so can Rittenburg, the Jan 6th rioters, and school shooters
Hell yeah
Ethan Crumbley was, in fact, charged with one count of “terrorism causing death”. And he pleaded guilty.
And now the words “terrorist” and “hero” have become synonymous, undoing decades of 9/11 imperialist propaganda in one fell swoop.
I mean I wish. But a man can dream.
Hopefully this should open some eyes, but 9/11 was literally America’s version of the recent invasion in Israel.
If anyone reads Osama Bin Laden’s manifesto, he explicitly states that Western support for Israel is one of the main reasons for the attack.
Yeah. I remember as a kid wondering why they would attack the states like that and my parents and every other adult I asked have different versions of “they hate our freedom” or “they’re Muslim extremists and want everyone who isn’t Muslim to die.” I live in Canada so I can only imagine how much worse it was in the US. To me, even as a child of 11 years old, that sounded far fetched and didn’t make much sense. Once the internet became popular I looked it up and realized it wasn’t as black and white, good vs evil as all that. Honestly that’s one of the things that made me start seeing the US as an evil country and start realizing what imperialism was and how horrific it was for the world.
The difference between a terrorist and a freedom fighter is who wins the war.
Or who owns the paper reporting it
FUCKING YES
The rebels in Star Wars are technically terrorists. Lucas even modeled them after the Vietkong. Same for the Fremen in Dune. In the book, Paul’s holy war is called the Jihad.
In DS9, Kira Nerys refers to herself as a terrorist all the time.
To be fair, that’s also often portrayed very critically. But yes, the Bajorans are pretty obviously Jew/French resistance proxies, while the Cardassians are almost comically Nazi-like.
Weird how the people shooting up substations aren’t being charged with terrorism…
Great. Can Americans now use that against police, or better yet, the government itself?
You know the difference between knowing and understanding something?
Well I feel like I just went from knowing to understanding that I live in a fascist state.
you are ruled by enclaves of capital
Control is enforced via useful idiots.
I’m also terrified by by insurance policy. Could someone do something about those terrorist?
Someone did, but just the one time.

We need more heroes like him.
